EDIT: Just crossed 26000!

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!

    Yeah if the rate of 3-4k new users per day keeps up, lemmy.world should overtake lemmy.ml in just a few days even. Might even get another huge influx on July 1 when third-party reddit apps shut down.

      That’s my last day using Reddit for sure. I’ve already stopped posting/commenting/and voting. I’m in read only mode now lol
