There's a clear up tick on daily users growing and we've crossed the 50k line as of yesterday! LETSSS GOOO!
-
Part of the problem is many of the users just don't get jokes.
You can post something that is blatant, obvious satire, and no matter how obvious or ridiculous, someone will argue about it.
Much of the userbase is fundamentally unable to understand humour.
Or they upvote anything that aligns with their political views, regardless of quality, see the posts of Pizzacake comics as an example.
Being early adopters many people here are tech or autistic people. There are also a lot of conscientious people who left Reddit, so many people tend to be more introverted and reflective.

Nah voting is the minimum threshold for activity
that's actually crazy because it means we're getting alot more usage. I know I just migrated and loving having the sync app again. reddit is a cess pool
-
Use the sync app worth all my pennies

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.
ohh okay I see..
Though I think there are probably people who only lurk (not even a vote) like me on reddit, but that's probably less people, since unlike reddit, where it's very searchable (through search engines, I mean) so you have to access it for some use case.

I’ve been trying all the open social options and Lemmy is by far the most entertaining and active.
-
I explained a bit here: https://lemm.ee/post/58018253/18825295
But I'll go into more detail : )
lemmy.ml is the instance run by the lemmy developers, who are tankies. Tankies are people who support authoritarian regeims such as the soviet union, or north korea.
As such, they sometimes remove anti-china or pro-ukraine posts/comments.
They also sometimes bridgade threads.
As an example, check [email protected]
I gotcha. Thanks so much for the explanation!

You're welcome

I have Sync for reddit and sync for Lemmy on my phone, it's confusing as hell but I can't complain lol
Sometimes I wish we could give app names aliases or suffixes something. Would be helpful when some apps have identical names, like "Weather".

Me too, fck reddit, it’s no longer a board for broad discussions from all view points but instead an echo chamber of moderators curating their own narrative.
Where have you been the last DECADE?
The regime intervened from the time Reddit exploded and it became a too important medium to let exist uncontrolled.

Same as they did before:

Looks like lot of people are mad bcs now also their other side of the US regime is being targeted.
Not a peep from them when Reddit furiously removed and banned mild criticism of the Palestinian genocide, same for other topics.
I have a lot of questions about the f people complaining now. -

I just really wish there was more active communities for things I like.
I made the Path of Exile community which is currently empty.
There's no Burning Man community yet for SOME UNKNOWN REASON
All the EDM communities are dead including the one I made.
Send Help!

Oh, I was thinking literal badlands
More like this

Is anyone else just enjoying seeing people create actual user names again and not just using the automatically generated ones reddit has done for awhile?
I gave up on doing that after a few bans, coming up with an original username was getting difficult.
On here, you have more faith that you will be using the same name for a while.

Did you make content for the Path of Exile and EDM community?
I also think more general communities (gaming, music) are what we need now, then later given enough growth, they will break into more specialized ones.

Historically, many stick and many bounce off.
That's true. But it's the numbers that will really tell the story if lemm.ee grows and how it grows. That's why it's far more telling in the months ahead and not some random single day.

Just randomly found this searching something unrelated, and suddenly I have an account. I've been a reddit user since it took over from digg. Which sort of took over from things like /.
Well now I feel old. Thanks
Welcome!

I just deleted my 12yo account over the censorship. Reddit has become a draconian shit hole and I no longer want to be a part of it. I'm happy to be here.
