Lemmy posts used to get like 30 upvotes max. I remember a few years ago one of the Lemmy devs made a post talking about the future of Lemmy and it got 120 upvotes over the course of a month.
Seeing posts of beans get 1/10th the upvotes as the front page of /r/All without the bots makes me wonder if Lemmy actually took a bite sized chunk out of Reddit, and they did it with chump change servers too
plus all the dope apps being built. Lemmy feels a lot bigger than reddit too.
Also ur username brought back some memories, hah.
