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!

I think there’s a short delay. But still that would be on the server hosting the post being overloaded. I’m not 100% familiar with how the protocols work. But when I look at top day from sh.itjust.works vs from Lemmy.world the numbers are the same in my feed. So It must not be a major difference in most posts.
Could also be because of an update not being rolled out to one of the servers. Just a guess.
