There's a clear up tick on daily users growing and we've crossed the 50k line as of yesterday! LETSSS GOOO!

It seems like every major microblogging platform has a few different flavors
Do you mean every major social media platform?
I haven't seen any lemmy forks yet

Hey look! I'm a statistic! Not the one I expected.
-
The problem is that communities feel dead if they're below a certain critical mass of users and the resulting content. If we can hit that critical mass it will take off on its own
Yep we all need to get posting and chatting to encourage others

They're not forks, but we have piefed and mbin (fork of kbin) and a couple more that have shut down

This is my first time here. I do not abide thought policing. Fuck Reddit, fuck Spez.
don't worry, you have that here too.
A lot less but still. -
Can you link the guide? I want to spread it around we need more guides

Here's the guide I saw

That's what I think happened to me, seems weird that so many of us are getting banned at the same time. It's different for me though, I get banned or downvoted to oblivion if I express any right wing ideas. It's 98% leftist there now it seems. Wouldn't surprise me if they ban r/conservative entirely this year.
I think the opposite happening more than that
-
That's around when my account was 7-day suspended, early Feb. Interesting.
Yes I ended up on a forum funny enough they all cooberated with their own experiences,. The thing is some of the bans don't make sense at all. I attempted to appeal at least 3 accounts that received the vague site wide ban message, all denied. I think they only will consider the original banned account that triggered all the other ones. Before you could just use a new or different account and avoiding the banned sub, but they decided to ban it anyways

Which subs pray tell?
-
This is probably active ones too, so the ones that don't comment (like me) don't count.. except this time. I would say it would be around same size as the active ones, but I have no data to prove that.
I think voters started being counted a while back? I'll see if I can find the release notes.
Edit: there we go, from the docs.
An active user is someone who has posted, commented, or voted on our instance or community within the last given time frame.

I signed up for hexbear out of morbid curiosity, that place feels like an insane asylum.

If you are here and want lemmy to succeed, please consider donating. The devs used to get by mostly on nlnet foundation grants but are trying to shift to a more sustainable donation based model. You can see how they are doing on the join-lemmy website when you scroll down to the bottom, there are also links to their liberapay (preferred option) paetreon, etc.

Is this something that should be really celebrated? I mean, the reason I joined is because it's not reddit. And I feel that this place will turn into reddit 2.0 if we're not careful.
-
We have an entire instance dedicated to popular 1960s television show Star Trek (don't go there)
There are dozens of us!

Absolutely it should be celebrated.
Once enough users are here, you can join a niche small instance that doesn't federate with as many mainstream ones to get that small community vibe. (Or better yet, make your own instance to build what you want)
The more people using federated social media instead of single-entity controlled social media the better for society.

That's really good to see. But it will be far more interesting to see what the numbers are a month and longer are from now. If they don't stick, it's pretty meaningless.
-
Would just be nice to be able to have open dialogue instead of all this tribalism and rage and arson and violence and assault and whatnot. Seems like a fair ask but everyone has lost their minds lately it seems.
I know I can't fathom it. It honestly frightens me. The lefts behaviour is a big reason I swung right, tolerance and acceptance of difference is important to me and a chunk of left just aren't like that anymore. If r/conservative were openly behaving like many left wingers on reddit they'd rightly be condemned. It's so wrong
-
Ah yes hexbear, don't miss them...
oh they're going to be refederated soon, like by the end of the month
-
What happened around February 12?
hexbear.net defederated due to domain ownership issues, since resolved. sounds like they're aiming to be refederated by the end of the month.
