what do you mean?

are you on a quest for libre alternatives, that has finally been completed by finding a replacement for reddit?

FOSS is boss

I'm new to lemmy, but honestly I could'nt be more excited being a part of this amazing community, and I hope lemmy stays here longer than reddit!

I just saw this on HN and thought: Oh well another community, but clicked on it. WOW, it is by far the fastest community website I ever saw. Can be really a good reddit replacement. I'm impressed! Keep going!

Congratulations! I only joined a few days ago, but I already feel at home. Once federation hits, the numbers will go even higher. Onwards and upwards!

... heading for 3000+ users (Right now : 2903 June 28th 2020). :grinning face with smiling eyes:

Recently joined this platform, hope this thing really takes off. Exponential growth let's go!

Glad to have you on board! :thumbs up:

Is there a possibility that we can see a graph showing the amount of lemmy users in time?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 4 years ago

Extremely interesting platform, finally a good alternative to reddit. :glowing star: The only real complaint I have is the design of the platform: it's right in the middle between modern and raw. I would much rather like if it focused on one of the two approaches.

A reddit alternative, federated, FOSS and named after Lemmy Kilmister, I'm in.

Hope to see this place grow and for Lemmy instances to pop up everywhere. A federated alternative to Reddit is a great idea. For some reason the pages don't always like to load for me (occasionally get a never-ending spinning circle, when viewing or trying to post) but that may just be the sheer amount of users now.

Also would love to see more themes than the existing ones (especially ones with smaller text). All the themes I like are just too big for me. Maybe I should try creating one. ๐Ÿค”
