Does lemmy.world really have 26000 users already?
(lemmy.world)
EDIT: Just crossed 26000!
Almost! At the time of this post, lemmy.world has a whopping 25733 users and is growing fast.
Since my last post yesterday, it has added 4000 new users, making it the clear second-largest lemmy instance out there. Also quickly catching up to lemmy.ml's 36000 (not taking new signups).
beehaw.org (3rd largest) sits at 12500 users, partly because of more restrictive registration requirements.

Exciting to see all this growth!
I think Lemmy.world is the new meta right now. All Reddit refugees overflow this instance as this is the most generic one and by looking and the number of communities it’s the smarter choice.
I just hope that the influx of users won’t cause too many server issues. I can already imagine what the devs feel like to have so many active users without mentally and technologically preparing for it
Hello from kbin.social. Isn’t federation and diversity great?!
Hello from my personal lemmy instance. ;)
Oooo - get you Mr/Ms/Mx fancypants over there.
I'm trying to figure out how to make my own
It's not hard but a little challenging.. If your savvy but new to the docker world there is a nice Ansible playbook that will set it up for you. Or if you want turn key with not much tech savvy there is a managed host doing Lemmy's for 10 a month. Search on here you'll find it.
I'm going the ansible playbook version. I'll work on it this coming week when I have time.
Great... Do the ssh keys... Much easier than doing the password setup.
