I only joined the main Lemmy instance a couple of days ago, but browing by new, there’s a pretty consistent stream of new posts now, even compared to the first day I was on here. I’m excited for this community.
I have been here for a few weeks. The state of the communities then and now is like black and white. Huge growth. That is excellent news.
The thing is it is a complicated setup. I can’t, for some reason, find some communities in search from others. And I consider myself tech savvy. That is a barrier for new users to overcome and it might be too much.
I’m excited too, but we should all be chipping in with a little donation to help keep the lights on.
Posting content and comments are good, but a bit of cash to help our new community succeed is critical.
I shall be donating regularly, myself.
Me too, I want to set up a monthly donation once I have income again
Yeah, it’s great. Night and day difference from when I first joined two years ago.
Yep.
Saw a post on the main instance saying it’s overloaded.
Good news!
The only thing I feel lemmy needs it’s better federation between the same communities. Like I wish I could subscribed to all communities publicly available for example /r/gaming
Same. While i have had this account for over a year i am just now really diving into it. I have been a mastodon user for years but just never had a reason to come and really kick the tires on lemmy
Same experience here. I created this account a while back and would check in every so often. But it looks like it’s happening for real now!
