Lemmy.world has grown by about 66.6% since reddit's API shutdown (self.fediverse)

Lemmy.world grew from about 51k users when third-party reddit apps started to shut down to about 84.8k users at the time of this post.

Definitely felt some growing pains in the past few days, but it's great to see the platform more active now that things have become more stable.

So, welcome reddit expats!

Congrats Lemmy.world!

I originally was using an account at .world but it started to get really slow under the stress of all the new users.

So I've since switched (to lemmy.ca) and it's been really nice. However, when I look at this thread from my .world account I can see a lot more comments. I know there are issues with syncing between instances and so I'd prefer to use .world if/when it is more stable. This way I can avoid the syncing issues mostly.

In any case I'm happy for Lemmy. I have multiple accounts and will use them whenever necessary. I wish there was something that could sync community lists between accounts. It was a bit of a chore to sync my community subscriptions for my accounts.
