From 2,997 active users across all lemmy instances at the beginning of June, the number increased to 52,797 by June 30th. Source.
An active user on Lemmy is "someone who has posted or commented on our instance or community within the last given time frame.” Source. That means lurkers are not counted as active users. There are currently almost 200k total users spread across the top 10 non-bot lemmy instances.
We’re really building something here!
EDIT: Looking for a lemmy app? Here’s a whole list: https://lemmy.world/post/465785
This is good. I had an account on here for a couple of weeks before starting to comment, so I guess I’m now an active user.
I don’t know where this site will go, but it’s certainly very interesting seeing an actual community on these little servers.
Commenting to boost.
RIP RIF.
Just moved since Sync stopped working. Hello world!
anyone know when sync will get lemmy support?
please let this be a thing
Apparently yes, you can sign up for updates through this link.
Is this the last Reddit hug of death?
I don’t believe so but I do think they will see continual decline after this. I’m envisioning more of a repeat of MySpace where everyone just loses interest.
Until they ban NSFW content
I could imagine that being a bigger knife in the back than killing 3rd party apps.
Killing old.reddit will be big too
And probably coming relatively soon as it’s much easier to scrape
I signed up today. It’s working for me in chrome but the mlem app isn’t recognizing my username or email. I’ll give it some time. It was sad this morning when Apollo was dead. RIP 3rd party apps and the Reddit that lives only in memory.
Commenting to be in the next stats :)
Happy to be part of the sudden stress test of your software and infrastructure! June 30 hit and I needed a place to go. Found Lemmy. Found Connect for Lemmy. I don’t know if this is the future for a Reddit-like service, but I’m pleased to see some real activity and I’m glad to be a part.
Downloaded Connect on Android and I’m really enjoying it. I hope to see Lemmy do well!
The main thing that bothers me about Connect are the ‘Material You’ colours. Can’t figure out how to get it just black and white. So for now I’m on Jerboa.
I just have the theme set on dark mode which is what I’m used to. I haven’t seen the material you stuff.
New lemmy account checking in as active! I’ll grab the popcorn 🍿
Guess I’m active now.
Is this just this instance or is this for all Lemmy instances?
across all lemmy instances
Glad to be of service
Activate!
Keen to see what those numbers will look like in July.
Joined today! Let’s go!! See ya, Reddit!
