In 2010 I was part of the Great Digg Exodus, and now in 2025 I'm part of the Reddit->Lemmy migration. Truly I'm part of the crowd.

what you mean all around the GLOBE there are only 47k active users? How does it compare to Reddit? I am an ex redditor. Banned for a comment in unpopular opinion sub lol

Well, in your case, even if Reddit has 8 billions users, you still wouldn't be able to access it, so why worry?

I feel like as more people wake up to how social media is toxic and quite literally programming by the rich, they will seek out alternatives that are owned by the people.

This is how the Internet was intended to be.

The other answers are correct, I just wanted to add that they're talking about Reddit

The first time people actually joined lemmy, before then was probably like 1 instance with near-dead activity.

3rd party API restrictions as they ramped up for their IPO and the shitshow that ensued.

Definitely above the threshold of immortality.

Lemmy has so much more and more diversified content than at the time of the API exodus. Hopefully, it will help us much more lemmygrant this time around.
