Since my last post yesterday, lemmy.world has added over 3000 new users, bringing the total user count to 22000 today (source: https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list). It firmly holds the position of the second-largest lemmy instance, passing beehaw.org by a large margin of 10000 users.

In other news, beehaw has defederated from lemmy.world a few hours ago. How does the third-largest instance only have 4 ~~mods~~ admins for its 12000 users?!

So much going on!

Additionally, there are many other social media platforms with significant user bases that are not listed here. When choosing which social media platforms to use for your brand, it's important to consider the relevance to your target audience and the quality of engagement on each platform, rather than just the number of users.

Ok ChatGPT.

Can people please not do that?

Haha no. I thought you are a bot account that responded to some keywords and saw that this isn't the case after I sent my comment. I'm not a fan of copying ChatGPT answers, but this is still very different.
