Lemmy is booming

I have never before received so many reactions and comments on my Lemmy posts before, so it's obvious to see, that there are many new members here.
Welcome to all the new! And I'm looking forward to see more of you here.
Cheers!

The Reddit exodus has begun! My only regret is not learning about lemmy and the fediverse before things blew up over there.

As one of the emigredditors, hell yeah! Personally though, I'm still testing the waters and making myself more comfortable here; it's eerily quiet here as compared to reddit, but I hope it's just a matter of time :)

Yes there's definitely a need for more users to really make things take off, but I believe that's a matter of time, assuming reddit doesn't take a fairly large change of course in the near future. Got to say, it feels a lot more friendly than reddit has lately.

Definitely, especially as someone who always felt a little reserved while writing comments in large subs, talking in a smaller community feels a little more welcoming (・ω<) I'm not too hopeful about reddit's decision making either, even though I see a lot of subs planning a strike in protest to their latest policy
