Lemmy just reached a new milestone: 1 million posts, across 1,323 servers.

The jump in posts over the last month is incredible. I find Lemmy quickly replacing Reddit which is great.
It just definitely needed to hit a critical mass. Enough that people had enough to read, stick around, and post themselves. Which in turn created a place that new people felt had enough content.
I thought I was gonna be able to quit Reddit full time. Didn’t look for a few days, then did. Still check since some niche communities aren’t over here (or active) yet so I have to go there. But I only still check every few days (I was a several time a day redditor so usage is down) and I’ll check Lemmy at least once or twice a day now.
I quit Reddit cold turkey. I miss sports talk and some of the gaming and workout subreddits though.
Yeah same, most communities i frequent on Reddit haven’t transitioned yet or is still tiny so I kinda juggle between the two apps.
Lemmy is nice for tech and nerdy subreddits but that’s pretty much it rnow
We all need to post this on reddit. Spread the word that this platform is booming and more people will come over!
It’s insane how well this timeline syncs with reddit’s API bs!
From the very first day spez announced the API changes and steadily increasing until most of the 3pa shut down then BAM. Good for Lemmy and hopefully bad for reddit!
I literally only tried Lemmy because of the RIF goodbye message. I’m here because for me, Reddit was Reddit Is Fun.
All. My. Homies. Hate. Spez.
Reddit is 100% bot driven
Finally made the switch, looking forward to doom scrolling here :)
ABANDON ALL HOPELESSNESS YE WHO ENTER HERE
Lemmy feels like Reddit 10-15 years ago, which is great.
Yup! As someone with a 16 year old reddit account, I’ve seen it all. This feels like back in the day
The grit of a new community site is what I missed
That’s an insane stat. As a Reddit immigrant, I would love to know the percentage of those who posted on Reddit and/or were mods, have migrated as well. That would correlate with the increase of posts in Lemmy, as well as the degredation of content on Reddit. Let’s see how this goes.
Yay! I’m a happy bangwagoner :)
I did my part. Made a post here, never did on reddit in ten years.
Hey! I helped do something! You’re wrong about being a 50 year old dead beat mom and dad!
…when’s lunch?
I definitely held out thinking they would change their mind about the API but day finally came and I made a Lemmy account and didn’t look back
Great! I was a bit sceptical about the new users grow in the past weeks, but I think this information is more reliable
So much of that steep was beans lmao
Just joined. Can’t wait for Boost for Lemmy
I’m doing my part. I had two posts on Reddit. One was superniche and got 30ish points. Whatever, I was happy. It had useful info for the other people on the sub. Then I posted something to the broader community and got two downvotes in like 1 second, killing it. How did they even look at it? I think someone was sitting there gleefully downvoting every fucking thing. I never posted again.
I’ve been here since mid June and have made 264 posts, like WTF. I’m having more fun here than I ever did on Reddit and I don’t get that sick feeling I used to get from seeing all the outrage posts and mean comments (to everyone, not just me).
Loving Lemmy.
That’s quite a jump
Congratulations! Hopefully a billion will come soon (;
