Number of (active) Lemmy users seems to stabilize and I think this is a great thing. Indeed we got a lot of users when reddit shutdown its API (I was among them despite being a long time oss user), many have left, but the community seems now to stabilize to ~ ½ of the big grow in june '23. I think this is very nice for lemmy, we can be proud of this project.

I wish I could view other instances as a guest. I love the voyager app so much but it doesn't seem I can do this.

I don't want ro set up loads of accounts just to browse.

I'm on lemm.ee which I think has de federated with a lot but still got the tankie subs. So I'll be interested to know what I'm missing. Lemmy.world needs my email so that one can fuck off. Don't know what else to choose.

I chose mander.xyz and feddit.nl partially because neither require an email address. I haven't really kept track of who all they have and have not defederated from. I think both don't defederate much. I use the block feature in Connect liberally to remove the communities I don't care to see, like the tankies.
