Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn’t the thing that makes a social media site, it’s the engagement

So even if you’re used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!

If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they’re more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they’ll just go back to reddit

    It’s pretty cool, we can see replies and site changes in real time.

    Lemmy instances going through growing pains, some larger servers will hopefully come soon

      Yeh, your image comment came up as a popup to the side of my page. It’s much faster than Reddit!

      Setting up my own instance is this weekend’s project.
