I got 141 once, that's 3 digits. Another 3 digit number is 999 which is half way there to 1998 which is 2k anyway. So I basically got 2k and I am famous on Lemmy AMA.
MAU is currently at about 45k, up from the low point of about 30k six months ago. The exodus spike subsided over a long time but now that users that didn't stick have been shed, you can see the user base growing again, though slowly.
What's nice here is that the upvote to comment ratio is pretty low compared to reddit and other platforms, meaning one upvote here means a lot more than one upvote on reddit.
Also each post sparks cool and unique discussions so you get more out of reading and participating in the comment section.
And the highest level of disappointment is finding a 10 year old stack overflow post that is exactly the problem you're having, but then discover that not only does it not have an answer but you're the one who asked it 😭
Not saying getting 10 mil likes is easy, because it's not, but that ratio of likes to views is pretty low in your example. Mr beast has 30 mil likes for a video with 150 mil views, for example. (Which, in all fairness, has a much higher ratio than average, but still)
Hey I'd settle for 10 million likes on YouTube... In views alone thats worth like $100k in ad revenue. But given that likes are typically only 10% of viewership, that means a video liked by 10 million probably has 100 million views. Which is about $1 million in ad revenue for just that video, assuming a low end payout of $0.01 per view.
That's not a low end payout per view. Typically it's a fraction of a cent (USD) per view. Typically ads pay out per 1000 views, and the average of that is $0.38. To make the math easier, we'll call it $0.50 per 1000 views, or $0.0005 per view. On top of this, YouTube takes their 45% cut, which means you're looking at more like $0.00025 per view. Of course, that's the average, and for a larger channel with the right audience you're more likely to see a CPM (cost per mille, mille being 1000 in French) of a few dollars. Let's call it $5.00, which would come to a CPM of $0.005, or roughly $0.0025 after YouTube takes their cut. That's still $25,000 for 10 million views, which is a ton of money, but I think people have a tendency to overinflate how much money comes from Youtube ads.
Why would one though? All the bots are on Twitter now because in order to fight Bots, Elon encouraged massive abuse of bots and ChatGPT with his new monetization scheme that earns you money the more impressions and engagement you get on your posts.
2k on Lemmy? that would be like all of us 😂
I have a 265 comment upvote. That's like 30% of the lemmy population.
200 here and it was
::: spoiler porn Foodporn, something i coocked and ate :::
Coocked, that's some new word
584 here!
But it was during the Reddit exodus and an off-the-cuff complainpost about something that I didn’t miss from Reddit.
My friend uses reddit religiously still. And keeps sending me links to posts there. So, I send him lemmy posts.
I got 141 once, that's 3 digits. Another 3 digit number is 999 which is half way there to 1998 which is 2k anyway. So I basically got 2k and I am famous on Lemmy AMA.
Questions:
SatanMCF got a -185 vote once, and I presume that wasn't its bottom. (he's against OHS)
Show me.
I'm impressed...
I got one post (not comment) over 600 and I felt like I was elected mayor or something
Hey, it's happened once in the past month!
MAU is currently at about 45k, up from the low point of about 30k six months ago. The exodus spike subsided over a long time but now that users that didn't stick have been shed, you can see the user base growing again, though slowly.
Bro casually mentioned whole lemmy population
This feels like our mascot, no further questions
lmfaao
I'm honored any time a comment passes 10
Edit: I wake up and I am honored
This man is a hero. Cherish him.
We shall cherish him to the very end

And that's why I love this place
True. To me, Lemmy feels somewhat more like the old vBulletin forums I used to browse 15 years ago.
Each upvote is also less likely to be a bot.
That's sad.
The highest level of achievement is missing: Getting only two downvotes on Stackoverflow
And the highest level of disappointment is finding a 10 year old stack overflow post that is exactly the problem you're having, but then discover that not only does it not have an answer but you're the one who asked it 😭
Me finding my old reddit posts through google. Kinda jarring getting deja vu, then realising it was me.
Has... Has that ever been accomplished??? The elders must know!
Also not enough information to say this is an issue have you just tried checking your logs?
Your answer doesn’t solve the issue and is a duplicate. I’ll double downvote you right now
😉
My best post has 343 and my best comment has 78 upvotes. I feel useful :)
Honestly I got like 300 something on a progress photo and it sent my confidence to the moon. Prettiest I've ever felt.
I feel you
You have all right to, that photo is stunning!
You forgot 'getting 200 upvotes on PornHub for that episode of SpongeDick RoundPants'...
/s
Me too, thanks.
I got 2.7k on a post, but I just got lucky.
Getting 1 star on GitHub
Getting 10 million likes on YouTube is astronomically more difficult than any of the others
Edit: For reference, the most liked YouTube video on the platform only has x5 that amount, at 53 million likes and 8.5 billion views.

Wild. I would've thought it to be a MrBeast video, not a music song to be the highest upvoted one.
As if everyone on Lemmy is going to vote 200 times.

Not getting yelled at on the Linux kernel mailing list
I got 1k on a post and that kept me going for a few days.
You're almost there lol
the quality increases as the quantity decreases
My personal record is 1568 score on lemmy.world account
I assume this is how it is, idk I'm new here
Yeah, except if you are a member of a troll bot farm. Lemmy allows easy creation of accounts and even networks of it so upvotes mean nothing.
I haven't experienced bot presence on Lemmy nearly as much as other platforms. It feels like Reddit years ago: small, but tight communities.
Why would one though? All the bots are on Twitter now because in order to fight Bots, Elon encouraged massive abuse of bots and ChatGPT with his new monetization scheme that earns you money the more impressions and engagement you get on your posts.
Don't forget "getting 1 response to your comment"!
Here you go!
YES
Getting 5 upvotes & a comment (non -Linux related )
Before this post I didn't think the population of Lemmy has reached 2k
Here's one more!
I remember my first up vote
Old meme
Can't be that old, Lemmy was even more minuscule until about a year ago.
there's someone who uploaded this same meme before the reddit thing but instead of 2000 it said 20
edit: I was linked to the post a few months ago maybe but I can't find it now
Then it's an update of a meme rather than a straight repost.
