Almost! At the time of this post, lemmy.world has a whopping 25733 users and is growing fast.

Since my last post yesterday, it has added 4000 new users, making it the clear second-largest lemmy instance out there. Also quickly catching up to lemmy.ml’s 36000 (not taking new signups).

beehaw.org (3rd largest) sits at 12500 users, partly because of more restrictive registration requirements.

Exciting to see all this growth!

    I’m mostly focused on going to a place and seeing lots of posts and comments. Behind the scenes, the tech that powers it? While I’m interested in it from a tech stand point, most regular people just don’t care.

      Exactly. Casual users (like me) want to see content and activity before making an account and subscribing.

      Yeah I see it like different UI to view the same content, just pick the layout or theme you like the best.
