Great! I was a bit sceptical about the new users grow in the past weeks, but I think this information is more reliable

You can tell there are more users by the number of the top up voted threads. Some are in the 1000s votes and a lot in the 100s. Wasn't that high before.

And the comment threads! You can find posts with multiple comment threads usually several comments deep!

It's really starting to feel like a legitimately good Reddit alternative around here, not just "Reddit like" or "Reddit light" and that's really awesome 😊

The change has been super pronounced in the last week or so. The meme quality has almost gone too damn high. All the news subs / pol subs / game subs I subscribed to on reddit are showing up here which makes the switch easy.

The live quali discussion for Formula 1 yesterday felt like a big indicator for me. Still nothing like the massive Reddit sub (but that one is honestly too big) but it ended up with several hundred comments and people were present and chatting all the way through in a way that felt lively.

Also, check out the communities page on lemmy.world. A couple of weeks ago, the biggest communities had 1-2k subscribers and now many are over ~~10k~~ 20k.

Nonsense, Lemmy's come a long way. We used to be hung up complaining about Reddit... but now we complain about Facebook.

Complaining about reddit: 🙅

Complaining about threads: 💁

I much prefer complaining about the weather.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Can I complain about people complaining about complaining?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Only if it's got an overtone of bitching.
