I love Lemmy, but as others have already said, the vast majority of these signups are likely bots. Pretty spooky.
Bots and multi-accounts. I had one reddit account with no alts. Here I have like 6 accounts because of all the federated / non federated bs.
I have a similar thing going. Have 3 accounts, one on lemmy.world, one on kbin.social, and one on beehaw.org.
