Yeah it's reaching critical mass I feel. So much more activity compared to a few weeks ago

.world's 40% growth on July 1 blew me away. Really convinced me this place will be the next Reddit in time, in the way we used to know Reddit.

The fact the user experience has gotten smoother and more responsive on top of that is just insane. Huge props to the .world team.

This will be like Wikipedia replacing Encarta CDs all over again

But... But... What about that 3D tour of the colosseum? That rocked.

Man I loved Encarta. I would spend hours in that shit just going through random stuff.

Growthrate has settled at 2000 new active users a day. It's been holding for several days now.

We just hit 100k users today; wasn't it <95k users yesterday??

[–] MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

Fedidb says were at 135k active.

Agreed! And less buggy. 2 weeks ago the servers were constantly crashing or the apps were glitching out. You can see the progress day by day.

Yeah this latest version of Lemmy seems to be humming along well oiled. It's working really good for me.
