    Yeah my guess as well. The Reddit blackouts have been going for quite a while, and the 3rd party apps are still going. There’s no reason why we would suddenly grow 300K in a day

      I personally was able to go a week without reddit and just be a normal person. The need for a replacement grew. And lemmy has been picking up enough thy I feel like I can come here whenever I pick up my phone and have a decent chance of getting content for my dumb chronicly content addicted brain.

      So yeah. Probably a bunch of other people doing the same. I finally created an account yesterday after a bunch of days lurking.

      Half and half.

      Also, growth is exponential.

      Its when it reaches a plateau aka once the dust settles, how much people remain engaged that matter.
