Lemmy active users grew by an astounding 1600% in June
From 2,997 active users across all lemmy instances at the beginning of June, the number increased to 52,797 by June 30th. Source.
An active user on Lemmy is "someone who has posted or commented on our instance or community within the last given time frame.” Source. That means lurkers are not counted as active users.
Also RIF user, and while IMO you can use Reddit pretty decently with FF and uBlock on Android, they fucked up big time with their behaviour. No way in hell am I further supporting a company with such a hostile and disrespectful behaviour. So here I am, and hopefully, many communities will follow.
