Lemmy just reached a new milestone: 1 million posts, across 1,323 servers.
Hype is real. Feels like this is the place to be. Reddit 2011 vibes with the high quality discussions. It’ll only get better. To the fediverse and beyond!
I feel like when I browse All I still just see the same 20 posts
The default “Active” sort option does that. Try “Hot” instead.
Try “sexy”
I still don’t get why Lemmy instances don’t default to “Hot”. Kbin does it right by going with “Hot” as default. All “Active” does is dog pile on posts that are almost a day old, sometimes even older than that.
You know what, what’s even the point of “Active” at this point with so many active users?
Thank you. I have so many engrained habits from Reddit that I’m not using Lemmy to its potential.

Yay! I’m a happy bangwagoner :)
What happened June 21st? It’s the first exponential growth and it’s also when I made my account, but I don’t remember what was the trigger to finally make an account.
Edit: I think it’s when they started trying to force subreddits back open: https://www.reddit.com/r/ModCoord/comments/14ffsk8/reddit_is_a_bully/
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
Just joined. Can’t wait for Boost for Lemmy
We all need to post this on reddit. Spread the word that this platform is booming and more people will come over!
Since the 30th I’ve stopped going on reddit, but I must admit I still don’t participate here as much because the content I’m seeing it’s not as tailored to my interests as I’d like. Searching for communities tends to show a lot of communities with no participation at all, which is useless.
Also wished there was a video player. Being constantly redirected to youtube is a bit annoying.
But I’m very happy with Memmy for Lemmy. Not as polished as Apollo, but close enough. And Lemmy feels freer from bot/ai/ad content, and that is worth gold.
well, communities without participants is not Lemmy’s fault.
Although I do share the same experience. Euro communities are almost dead. Escooter community has like 5 members lol.
The german lemmy community seems quite active from what I can tell. Can’t say anything about the EU community as a whole, just created my account 5 minutes ago and I’m still exploring what there is to see.
Leaving a comment to say I was here in the making of internet 3.0
fuck spez?.. /s
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.
How tf did you make your name like that???
Same here, but for boost. I never heard of Lemmy until boost for Lemmy was announced.
So hope e creater of RIF creates LIF.
Same except for me its BoostforReddit.
Hype for Boost for Lemmy
All. My. Homies. Hate. Spez.
I may not be your homie, brother, but I do hate Spez.
Did somebody say sync…
Bro I CANNOT wait. Sync was the GOAT Reddit app and I know you’ll do great with Lemmy. Glad to see you here.
What are you using now? I’m using Connect for Lemmy and it feels very close to Sync because of gestures. I’ll be torn when Sync comes out because I’m enjoying this so much. (And Connect is Canadian like me. Haha)
We did it Lemmy! We’ve reached an arbitrary number of posts.
BOOM! …shaka-laka…
We all can be very proud.
