Lemmy total number of users last month (very close to 1.5 M users)

Reply in thread

In the last 3 months it went down by about 10,000 users. Comparing with the rate of increase in total Lemmy users, active user rate should have at least been stable. I guess we will have to wait for reddit to fuck up again for another influx. And Lemmy is only getting better with time so probably on every influx more users are going to stay.

I try to get people from niche subs I follow to move to Lemmy but every time I do I get downvoted. Could be automated by reddit idk

go outside

interact with people

nobody is talking about linux

nobody is talking about the bad thing that amazon did today

nobody is talking about self hosting or privacy

everyone just having normal and relatively pleasant conversation and going on with their day

Is it just me, or does it feel like Lemmy is being hit with a wave of political spam?

Yep, and i understand that im on a western instance so western politics is to be expected but it was getting too much that All page is overwhelmed with politics to the point that i don't see posts that interest me anymore. So i just blocked political communities and also communities related to twitter. Now I interact more with the fediverse cause i actually get a chance to see things that i can relate to instead american politics.
