This is a better metric than registered users.
I'm enjoying this early stage of lemmy where everyone seems eager to use the platform. It's giving the same vibes as the old forums I used to participate in the early days of the internet.
We just need more content creators and we are set!
Surprising it's gained this much traction, considering Reddit literally doesn't allow this site to be linked on their platform (which is honestly so petty)
Just got here using WefWef as a daily Apollo user. I’ll be browsing daily after June since Reddit is killing third party apps. I think a lot of people are in the same boat.
I don't post much other than memes but I comment lots and try to upvote quality posts. Reddit is dead to me, I spend too much of my time on social medias anyways.
If you take a look on fedidb.org, there's a TON of instances with ~30,000 users but 1 active user. I checked one and the admin had commented that he had email verification off but manual approval on and wasn't getting anyone registering, so he turned manual approval off too. Welp.
Really neat to be along for the ride. Hopefully this momentum continues and the whole "There's no viable alternative" narrative is emphatically proven both false and idiotic.
It’s good to see. On June 30/July 1 we’re likely to see another big influx of users when the Reddit API changes go into effect and Apollo et al shut down.
