I'm here to boost that active user number. Hoping this takes off.

I'm new, myself. I hope more people start coming over.

I'm only one person but I never returned to Reddit after the blackout. They could do a complete u-turn and even make sp*z that little fucker walk the plank but I would still be done with that place.

I am really excited to see the community we build from here on out.

As a Reddit user for over a decade that got perma-banned for reporting repost bots and blatant misinfo

Glad to see new site where I can actually be involved.

i am the active user

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

So active users doesn't include users who are only browsing/voting on posts? If so that's even more impressive.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

the major shift should happen on July 1st right?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah, that's the expectation. Apollo (iOS) will shut down June 30. Sync (Android) is creating a lemmy version and will blast that announcement in the reddit version on June 30 (https://lemmy.world/post/527443).

I've definitely noticed the uptick in the number of communities and new posts. Exciting times.

I wanted to join lemmy 2 years ago but it was strict and my appeal got rejected. Now in ya face

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

Time to be part of the stats!

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

This is great news for Lemmy, let's hope that community grows even larger, as more users leave reddit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Lemmy looked a bit complex, coming from Reddit, with the great app Sync for Reddit, but I like it here so far. Hoping Sync for Lemmy will soon be there!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Good news: it’s in development, and a preload should be available sometime today!

+1. Bye Reddit. Hello Lemmy! Struggling a bit to find my way around. Excited to find so many people willing to contribute to make Lemmy their new home. Feels good to be here.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (5 children)

I've been mostly a lurker on Reddit for the past 10 years but something about Lemmy just makes me want to engage in the community more than reddit ever has. Also it's incredibly impressive how quickly lemmy improved over the last weeks.

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

I agree. I lurked on Reddit for most of my time there. But here, it feels like I can get a fresh start and be a part of a new community. Kinda feels like I have a responsibility too. I want this place to succeed, so I have to contribute.

Hope Lemmy grows at a steady pace so the resources can keep up. It's amazing it's handeling this amount of Traffic already.

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

Even if you do nothing else, make sure to upvote content and comments, and subscribe to communities. Bringing content over from reddit (or even just googling stuff) to the new applicable community would be extra helpful (a lot of empty communities at the moment).
