In addition to lemmy.world, the #2 real lemmy instance, lemmy.ml, seems to be growing as well.

Our neighbor, kbin.social, has also reached the 40k milestone today.

"Non-bot Lemmy instance" Go talk to the beehaw'ers about that, they're convinced we're the bottiest of instances. =P

[–] Master@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

Not bottiest. They specifically said it was the trolliest.

Nothing of value was lost

I'm new here, too! Just made the account. <3 Never liked Reddit, but open source stuff is always nice, plus, Lemmy looks way cleaner. So uhm... henlo!

[–] RxBrad@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I actually just had to bail on lemmy.ml and come over to lemmy.world.

Turns out the zScaler web filters they use at work have a blanket filter on the entire .ml TLD... Can't be having that now...

Congratulations 🍾🎉🎊 lemmy.world

[–] MyOpinion@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

The next 40K will be even quicker.

Here representing kbin! I honestly keep trying to go back to a lemmy.world from time to time but I prefer kbin's experience overall. Fantastic news for all involved!

Why is country shown as Finland? The server is host in Germany AFAIK.

[–] scrof@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Hey that sweet Finnish flag was the reason I chose it! I feel cheated now :(

@MicroWave I don't know about bots but I think Kbin has a little over 41K users right now: https://kbin.social/nodeinfo/2.0

[–] Maximilian@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I don't understand. You say 40k but on the statistics page of kbin https://kbin.social/stats it says 200k users (?)

[–] Mr_Figtree@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

kbin.social is a Kbin instance, not a Lemmy instance, so it's not stopping lemmy.world from being the biggest Lemmy instance.

[–] silicon_reverie@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Great news! But how do lemmy.fediverse.observer and fedidb.org separate "bots" from "non-bots"? It feels like "we don't have any bots" is a pretty laughable thing to say.
