there's gonna be another influx of fugees from reddit this week. i noticed there's only about 350 people on this server .. pretty sure that's gonna change.

anyway, here's the modcoord link - https://old.reddit.com/r/ModCoord/comments/14cr2is/alternative_forms_of_protest_in_light_of_admin/

lemmy had over 20 thousand new users signup in the space of a single hour a little while ago https://botsin.space/@threadcount/110567230856441064

it's going exponential

Hasn't hit us yet.. I'm manually approving applicants, the numbers haven't been higher today than yesterday.

I think aussie.zone is nicely in the middle of the instances lists. Small enough to not be near the top and get people looking for a large instance, big enough to not be near enough to the bottom for people looking for a small one. We're juuuust right. 😀

Also even if we were at the top mostly Aussies would want to join so it still wouldn't be way too much.

Quoting from the above link, examples of protest:

"redefining the topic of the forum (see r/nofans, previously a NSFW sub, switching to "lovely passive PC coolers"); r/iphone is posting only pics of Tim Cook “looking dashing”.; r/tall forced to reopen under threat of being removed as mods, users are posting John Longiver pics; r/horny is now a "christian minecraft server";

This is the funniest thing I've read regarding Reddit for weeks!
