Lemmy.world grew from around 51000 total users the moment 3rd party reddit apps started to shut down on June 30 to 71000 total users at the time of this post (July 1). That's a 40% growth in about 12 hours!

Welcome new reddit expats!

Whoooo!! Here we go. New era of internet. Twitter is dying, reddit is dying, I can't wait to see the decentralized web come to life.

Hi, my name is power2bill. Feels odd to not have RIF on my phone. I'm going to lurk for awhile and make a comment every 2-3 months. Hopefully, new communities pop up that I used to go on from reddit. I'll be here enjoying usefully, and sometimes not useful information. Cheers everyone! 🍻

I'm finding that quite a lot of communities exist, they just take more work at the moment. For me, I've found a uk community but cannot post due to signing up to .world. creating an extra account doesn't send the verification email. I see all this of teething problems tho as was always the case with reddit.

You can really tell, as posts that used to have 1-2 comments now have 4-5. It's nice chatting with y'all

[-] WindyRebel@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Yay! I haven’t chatted with you, but still saying hello and I hope you have a great weekend.

[-] Vathsade@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago

Just a guy here, but I hope you both have a great week, all the way up to Thursday.

Glad to be here and be a part of the community! It's unfortunate Reddit is going the way of Digg, but definitely looking forward to watching Lemmy grow and develop.

Another one from the Digg to Reddit migration!

What app are you guys using for Lemmy now ? I'm on Jerboa . I find it laggy while scrolling. What's a better alternative?
