This is the growth of our lemmy instance, without any advertising or spruiking. It was spun up as a test more than anything else, but it seems that it has become more than that!
Even though the graph shows the growth spike from April to June, in reality it's even more stark than that. We have gone from 20 users to 100 users in a week!
We'll be spinning up a kbin instance soon too, and when we do, we might shut down registration on the lemmy instance. We'll keep them up for now though, given the load on lemmy.ml from reddit migrations

I just wanted to say thank you for spooling this up and running it all. I know it must be annoying sometimes but I'm really, really thankful to you all. When y'all got a way for us to buy you friends some coffee, save hyrule and send link!
De nada :)
It was mostly spun up as a playground for me to test out lemmy, but it has turned in to a whole community, which is amazing
