Lemmy.world grew from around 51000 total users the moment 3rd party reddit apps started to shut down on June 30 to 71000 total users at the time of this post (July 1). That's a 40% growth in about 12 hours!

Welcome new reddit expats!

And yet fediverse observer is showing declining user count, while server count, comments and posts are growing steadily.

It's me! I'm one of the new joiners! I've been enjoying the content and discussion here in the last day since I created my profile here. I have noticed a bit of lag and issues with things loading. I know there was a software update and obviously a sudden influx of new users. As frustrating as it was to have to move apps and communitie and despite the obvious growing pains, I have been happy to find a new community that is friendly and vibrant as this one!

Very happy to see that such a strong migration is actually happening.

Such great news about Lemmy.world

As soon as a stable app happens that'll be amazing.

Sync for Lemmy is coming soon which should be one of the best apps around if it perfectly can replicate the (now removed) Reddit version.

Is that local members or total users?
