I saw some stats on this months ago, especially after the initial explosion. I’m curious if the growth is still continuing at a good pace and also how everyone feels about the growth/activity within their communities.

Definitely feels emptier than it was a few months earlier, but so far I enjoy the "I'm not just a pawn in an ocean of users" feel that Lemmy gives vs Reddit

I also appreciate not being the punching bag for people having a bad day. There seems to be fewer of those types on here.

That’s one of the drivers for me interacting more here. On Reddit I either felt like everything that could be said had already been said or that whatever I may have to add would be buried.
