Lemmy.world grew from about 51k users when third-party reddit apps started to shut down to about 84.8k users at the time of this post.

Definitely felt some growing pains in the past few days, but it’s great to see the platform more active now that things have become more stable.

So, welcome reddit expats!

    Can’t recommend spinning up a second account on a smaller instance enough. It’s made the experience so much faster than it was using my account on .world

      Which lemmy would you recommend? I chose world because I thought it’s the international version since there’s no lemmy specific for my country.

      I wish more of the apps let you enter a custom server URL which would encourage this aspect of the fediverse. I currently use connect for lemmy, its great but only has 3 static server options.
