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!

Yeah that's what I've been doing so far, for new users it's pretty clear why they're mostly just hanging out in lemmy.ml. Getting the word out about outside communities is a bit difficult, but hopeful. I'm viewing all of this as a perfect "Reddit gave Lemmy a window to view painpoints and minimize them before a larger exodus". I don't think we'll see anything like the migration from Digg, but I see a lot of people who will be open to alternatives if Reddit goes through with this end of month. Right now it's "How do we funnel them" when they drop the hammer.

The time you see a system's weakness most clearly is definitely when stressing it in a real scenario. The goal is to improve further each time we get an influx of users :)
