Lemmy just reached a new milestone: 1 million posts, across 1,323 servers.

The jump in posts over the last month is incredible. I find Lemmy quickly replacing Reddit which is great.
This comment is so good it has -1 downvotes
It just definitely needed to hit a critical mass. Enough that people had enough to read, stick around, and post themselves. Which in turn created a place that new people felt had enough content.
I thought I was gonna be able to quit Reddit full time. Didn’t look for a few days, then did. Still check since some niche communities aren’t over here (or active) yet so I have to go there. But I only still check every few days (I was a several time a day redditor so usage is down) and I’ll check Lemmy at least once or twice a day now.
Yeah same, most communities i frequent on Reddit haven’t transitioned yet or is still tiny so I kinda juggle between the two apps.
Lemmy is nice for tech and nerdy subreddits but that’s pretty much it rnow
I quit Reddit cold turkey. I miss sports talk and some of the gaming and workout subreddits though.
Same. Last night i went in and deleted all of my subscriptions except for the 3 i really want to keep checking in on.

We all need to post this on reddit. Spread the word that this platform is booming and more people will come over!
It’s insane how well this timeline syncs with reddit’s API bs!
From the very first day spez announced the API changes and steadily increasing until most of the 3pa shut down then BAM. Good for Lemmy and hopefully bad for reddit!
I literally only tried Lemmy because of the RIF goodbye message. I’m here because for me, Reddit was Reddit Is Fun.
All. My. Homies. Hate. Spez.
Same except for me its BoostforReddit.
Hype for Boost for Lemmy
So hope e creater of RIF creates LIF.
Same here, but for boost. I never heard of Lemmy until boost for Lemmy was announced.
How tf did you make your name like that???
Did somebody say sync…
/c/beetlejuicing
I love how active you are as a developer in the community.
Bro I CANNOT wait. Sync was the GOAT Reddit app and I know you’ll do great with Lemmy. Glad to see you here.
What are you using now? I’m using Connect for Lemmy and it feels very close to Sync because of gestures. I’ll be torn when Sync comes out because I’m enjoying this so much. (And Connect is Canadian like me. Haha)
Reddit is 100% bot driven
Hype is real. Feels like this is the place to be. Reddit 2011 vibes with the high quality discussions. It’ll only get better. To the fediverse and beyond!
Finally made the switch, looking forward to doom scrolling here :)
ABANDON ALL HOPELESSNESS YE WHO ENTER HERE
Lemmy feels like Reddit 10-15 years ago, which is great.
Yup! As someone with a 16 year old reddit account, I’ve seen it all. This feels like back in the day
The grit of a new community site is what I missed
That’s an insane stat. As a Reddit immigrant, I would love to know the percentage of those who posted on Reddit and/or were mods, have migrated as well. That would correlate with the increase of posts in Lemmy, as well as the degredation of content on Reddit. Let’s see how this goes.
Well count me in. It took me two weeks to successfully create an account, but it finally didn’t crap out on me.
Maybe this is the good thing. Let Reddit stay filled with the lowest common denominator and divisive politics. Making Lemmy a little more hassle than the common user wants to experience to get into might be the only thing that keeps it from becoming the ban heavy echo chamber Reddit is.
It’s funny, because it’s not even a very hard barrier of entry to overcome, just takes some patience, but it’s apparently enough to keep a lot of low effort content out.
I love it here.
(I wonder if they’re getting worried yet.)
Far from that probably. But hopefully they will eventually
Leaving a comment to say I was here in the making of internet 3.0
Great! I was a bit sceptical about the new users grow in the past weeks, but I think this information is more reliable
So much of that steep was beans lmao
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.
Obligatory
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
10k20k.
The graphic seems to be like a wallstreetbets launch.
this chart just looks fantastic - i hope for the best
It’s getting better. I am not even visiting reddit at all and I still find content here.
I also createdc/woahdude but not too many people adding content. Why is that?
We all can be very proud.
Keep growing that number!
