EDIT: Just crossed 26000!

Almost! At the time of this post, lemmy.world has a whopping 25733 users and is growing fast.

Since my last post yesterday, it has added 4000 new users, making it the clear second-largest lemmy instance out there. Also quickly catching up to lemmy.ml's 36000 (not taking new signups).

beehaw.org (3rd largest) sits at 12500 users, partly because of more restrictive registration requirements.

Exciting to see all this growth!

Browse All Hot and when you notice several appealing posts coming from some community subscribe to it. Build up your "Subscribed" feed and see how it improves over time.

Big tip, go to your settings (web browser) and uncheck "show read post". That way you don't need to see the same post everyday because it has a lot of engagements. here is an article that will get you up to speed: https://tech.michaelaltfield.net/2023/06/11/lemmy-migration-find-subreddits-communities/
