Very easy signup so far. Excited to see how things go here.

Wow, amazing to see and experience the community grow and become so active. I love it! :D

I'm super excited for Sync for Lemmy.

Also tinfoil hat on for a second. If there are really as many bots as people keep suggerting. Who has an interest in sabotaging lemmy?

But then it's probably the same bits which are everywhere now interested in lemmy because it gained users.

I joined in the last few days. Seems like this site has much better content. Less bots and reposts. Plus, the user base seems a lot more intelligent in general at this point.

Notice the disparity between monthly active users and registered users. These are bots. I'm very tempted to block these instances outright.

How can a user block instances?

Simply use darkreader extension!

On phone by default, the theme follows your phone. Set the phone to dark mode and it should switch.

If it isn’t or if you’re on PC go to themes in your user settings and manually change it.

That is quite the spike in growth. I'm new too. It's good to see places like this get attention.

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

200k bot accounts.

That uptick in users the past week is crazy.

Honestly the only thing missing now is a good app for iOS. However I’ve been using the mobile browser version and it works just fine. I hope Apollo’s dev sees an opportunity here and goes for it.

You should grab memmy and join their discord. They've posted some screenshots of what the UI overhaul will look like in the short term and it looks incredible. If you love Apollo, it should be a pretty easy transition

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

There's a couple iOS apps in development right now (Mlem and Memmy). Can't wait for them to hit the app store.

Artemis for Lemmy/kbin looks like Apollo's spiritual successor

TBH - I don't understand how people use Lemmy. It auto-updates and scrolls every few seconds if I try to look at anything that isn't a stale feed from 3 days ago. I know it'll get better but you have to REALLY want to be there to stick it out which will turn off many new users.
