Created on June 1 of this year, lemmy.world quickly grew to 51k users and then blew up after reddit’s API debacle on July 1, doubling to a whopping 100k in just 9 days later!
The third party app I used for reddit said that this is the platform they were going to focus on. That’s why I came. Those are the people I want to support. The people that make the experience better. Once they release an app I’ll buy it first day
The devs have been working their butts off. They make post with complete transparency about their growing pains. The devs of leemy.world and others get together and troubleshoot as a team, especially lemmy.ml. everything is posted on GitHub. It’s awesome to see and support. I’ve been here for about four weeks now, and it has been fun to watch it grow, and participate in the user community.
Pretty sure Lemmy is getting a ton of reddit users now that they pretty much ruined the user experience by making 3rd party app developers to pay money to use their api.
I just created an account here… I won’t be returning to reddit!
