Update: We are now past 140,000 users. Growth is still accelerating.
When I checked yesterday it was 91,000 users, it’s now 109,000 and counting up fast!
100,000 🎉

Wow! And it was around 11000 last weekend?! This is great!
I was going to ask what the number used to be! I am new as of last week, and even from when I started, it’s insane to see posts with hundreds of upvotes. Crazy upswing in such a short amount of time. I wonder how long time Lemmy users feel about all this.

It was a shiny clean looking old reddit with great intentions and probably closer to my vision of speech but hot damn it was either people or campaigns because it got super racist real quick. Some have mentioned though that a lot didn’t seem genuine.
Yeah it’s amazing to see how fast Lemmy has grown!
Not surprising seeing the crap that’s going on with reddit. I came over from it too this week.
