Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn't the thing that makes a social media site, it's the engagement

So even if you're used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!

If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they're more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they'll just go back to reddit

Silly question maybe. How do I search for other servers to join when in an app? Is it possible? I’m using memmy for iPhone.

Not silly, I think there are a lot of us on a learning curve here, I can't help, but I can comment to practice doing so and see if I get notifications if anyone does answer you. I'm using the jerboa app though, for Android! Good luck!

I'm using jerboa too. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong but it seems like the communities that come up under All - Top are kind of limited. Maybe just still a small user base at the moment
