Man, I knew I made the right decision to promote "Barbie" on this Lemonworld thing instead of reddit.

This feels great. The posts right now seem a lot more genuine compared to reddit lately. Keep it up!

Just realised I have not replied to anything yet, so using this thread to check it works.

Had to restart my instance so I'm commenting here to make sure I add to the active user count. Looking good, Lemmy! Let's hope we can keep this momentum going into the next month (and beyond)!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Finally I know what counts as an active user thank you!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Upvoting/Downvoting/Subscribing should count as active too. (From a lurker)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Previously uncounted lurker also commenting for the stats.

Much better metric to see how Lemmy is growing

Lurkers unite!

My first comment here so that I’ll be counted as a ‘User’!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I wanted to join lemmy 2 years ago but it was strict and my appeal got rejected. Now in ya face

Hope Lemmy grows at a steady pace so the resources can keep up. It's amazing it's handeling this amount of Traffic already.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I'm here from reddit, too, so the number just went up one more.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I've just registered, read this last night and had to comment just to be a part of it. Happy to find a really good alternative.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Even if you do nothing else, make sure to upvote content and comments, and subscribe to communities. Bringing content over from reddit (or even just googling stuff) to the new applicable community would be extra helpful (a lot of empty communities at the moment).

Things keep looking better here, so I'm optimistic about lemmy.

I've been mostly a lurker on Reddit for the past 10 years but something about Lemmy just makes me want to engage in the community more than reddit ever has. Also it's been incredibly impressive how quick lemmy improved over the last weeks.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I agree. I lurked on Reddit for most of my time there. But here, it feels like I can get a fresh start and be a part of a new community. Kinda feels like I have a responsibility too. I want this place to succeed, so I have to contribute.

Lemmy looked a bit complex, coming from Reddit, with the great app Sync for Reddit, but I like it here so far. Hoping Sync for Lemmy will soon be there!
