As a result, our instance https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/ got 625 new user registrations (of which 536 where accepted) in the past 24 hours! And the registrations are not abating even now. We still get like 10 new ones per hour!
I suspect this is probably the largest advertisement, for lemmy specifically, since the main reddit blackouts 1.5 years ago.
Have your own instances also seen an influx of new users?
I migrated from reddit today. Thanks to r/piracy post. So far it’s amazing. I am using the Eternity app for Android which is the same as the Infinity app for reddit so UI is similar
Welcome!
I’m glad you’re adapting. Welcome !
