Impressive, I guess, but how many of those 2 million posts have a single comment? If 90% of these are just bots reposting things from Reddit with no further engagement…
The content will bring in users. I try to comment on interesting topics to help drive engagement.
This is my thoughts as well. I’ve noticed that once one or two people express interest in a post, it tends to get much more traffic
Unfortunately it seems that MAUs are steadily declining as well.
Hey! Some of those posts with no comments are me posting pictures of cute bugs that I took! I’m not a bot, I’m just not very interesting.
If RiF ports their app to Lemmy, have it as nearly functionally as it was on Reddit as possible while accommodating the ways lemmy is different, I think it would be a winner.
I’d love for RiF to be ported to Lemmy. I’m using Sync now but I don’t feel it’s as good as RiF was to me.
Boost is coming. Did you try Liftoff or Connect? They can be good Rif alternatives
I’m testing Sync and Connect. I’ve just installed Liftoff, will see if I like it but it seems promising. I’ll try Boost once available as I’ve heard good things about its Reddit version.
Are there any plans of doing that, though? I’m a lifelong RIF user and would love for it to work on here 🥺
And a hearty F.U. to reddit
I bit the bullet after I read there the Sync app was released. Now I’m lurking until I find the communities I love best… and it feels like they’re already starting to spring up. If I had the time to, I’d make and mod them myself.
Great growth so far. How does this compare to Reddit?

In 2020 their year-over-year growth was around 50%, or roughly 4% per month. (source)
Helping out the numbers :)
How about the current situation? These numbers are soon a year old!
It seems that. 1) Cumulative graph is removed, because cumulative doesn’t make sense. There is an average graph though. Average Lemmy Posts by Day… 2) In just a single day the numbers of this new average graph exploded… that can’t be right… 3) What about all the spam posts!??
And… for the Mbin users out there. Here is the same average posts by day, but on the Mbin platform.
Any reason to come back to this 5 months old post? Genuinely asking if something changed on that topic 😄
The thread itself is actually already 1 year old. Well, look at the screens above. Somebody asked for a follow-up, so I gave a follow-up of both the average posts by day for Lemmy as well as Mbin… The trend is still up.
Indeed, but they asked 5 months ago, which is why I was curious about your comment now
I didn’t saw it earlier… :P
No worries 😄
Great scot! 1.21 Gigawatts of active users!
It’s the gigareddits to gigalemmies reddit disarmament program!

Why do you care about downvotes? You sharing your opinion and perspective is what makes the platform better. Other people clicking an arrow means nothing :)

This is the way. It doesn’t have to happen all at once. Positive growth is good.
So it seems like lemmy is still improving in content, even though the reddit situation has stabilised. That is awesome to see!
Burn, reddit, burn.
All I’m missing is the more niche communities to grow. It’s good to see lots of memes and engagement but a man needs more.
