Stats can be found here: https://the-federation.info/platform/73 - this site has been hugged to death for the moment.
Stats can also be found here: https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/dailystats
That's over 9000!
I think we're still a little bit short of 8.0995899866e+31681 users.
Yup. Just 1.007Γ10^3520 earths left :)
Putting them advanced maths skills to use!
Nearly up to 20k new users in last 24 hours, itβs accelerating!
40 million more to go! \o/
Reddit wasnβt built in a day :)
Let's hope it falls within a day.
As one of those new users, I'm loving the potential of Lemmy and I'm enjoying finding my way around, but it definitely needs some UX enhancements, especially around federated communities.
This is amazing news. Iβm thinking weβve reached critical mass where itβs going to be self sustaining and worth using.
Que bueno ver y participar, despuΓ©s de varios aΓ±os casi en el olvido. Y que sigan sumando...
I actually like the interface a LOT better than (old) Reddit. I refused to use the new interface because "yuck!" and old.reddit.com doesn't have a "dark mode," so I view this as an upgrade, visually (along with other UX aspects). I'm definitely sticking!
RES has (had?) a dark mode for old reddit.
yep it does. RES was such a great addon made by such cool people. Cant wait to see the kind of things those people are making for Lemmy.
Someones already made a browser extension that simplifies hyperlinking to other instanceβs communities across the Lemmyverse.
Its now at, um, Users: 112113.5

Musk has a Lemmy account?

Very interesting. Anyone know why there was a huge drop in Total users for Lemmy from Nov 3 to Nov 4, 2022?. Total users went from 55178 to 37901.
Thanos snapped obviously don't you remember half of humanity turning to dust https://tenor.com/0CEG.gif
Good for Thanos for not forgetting to delete the Lemmy accounts of those who are snapped out of existence.
Did some somewhat sizable instance close down or become invisible to that site or something like that maybe?
Don't forget us kbin users too! We're all in the same boat now
Indeed! That's the beautiful thing about this whole decentralised magic. You can use the app (not just mobile app) that best suits you and your interests, and interact with anyone, anywhere.
It's wonderful honestly.
it warms my heart to see so many people slowly figuring this out. This is what the internet was meant to be all along.
Might be a dumb question, but I don't see how I can interact with Kbin from Lemmy.
If I search for communities, I can see ones from other instances but not any from Kbin.
On kbin.social specifically, federation is currently broken. The server saw a lot of stress because of the influx of new users and the dev turned on the cloudflare check, so that instance won't kneel down. That broke the federation, other instances cannot go through that check.
kbin.social still isn't federating, right? I wasn't able to access communities @kbin.social from Lemmy
We are at 5k monthly active users. I find that stat more interesting.
Here are some of the monthly active user statistics for various social media platforms, according to the search results:
It's worth noting that these numbers are subject to change and may vary depending on the source. Additionally, there are many other social media platforms with significant user bases that are not listed here. When choosing which social media platforms to use for your brand, it's important to consider the relevance to your target audience and the quality of engagement on each platform, rather than just the number of users.
