A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

A timeline I created of the total users at the top 10 Lemmy instances as a bar chart race: https://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/14058992/ and as a line chart: https://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/14080522/.

I'm being a lot more active here than I was on Reddit. Trying to make sure it feels like a dynamic space for new redfugees :)

For some reason, same. I'm just, like, feel enthusiastic about Fediverse as a whole and Lemmy in particular.

Same here, I am just afraid this will stop after the first wave of enthusiasm.

I'm feeling the same way, but I suppose we'll soon see.

Even if the reddit exodus doesn't turn into another internet legend, I am enjoying having fun participating in a forum for the first time in a long time. Probably since reddit stopped feeling like one in the early 2010s.

Agreed, Lemmy needs to hit a critical mass to keep things going.

I’ve got a ton of things to post that are either from my pulled down Reddit posts or stuff I had but never posted. Here, if anything I’m trying to pace my posts so that I don’t drown a community in just my threads.

Yes, I don't want to look like a spammer.

Same here as well, really enjoying it so far.

Well.. dare I see me also! I told my wife “I’m pretty sure this is the push to Web 3.0.
