Lemmy is booming

I have never before received so many reactions and comments on my Lemmy posts before, so it's obvious to see, that there are many new members here.
Welcome to all the new! And I'm looking forward to see more of you here.
Cheers!

As one of the emigredditors, hell yeah! Personally though, I'm still testing the waters and making myself more comfortable here; it's eerily quiet here as compared to reddit, but I hope it's just a matter of time :)

I'm calling it the Reddit APIocolypse.

Yes there's definitely a need for more users to really make things take off, but I believe that's a matter of time, assuming reddit doesn't take a fairly large change of course in the near future. Got to say, it feels a lot more friendly than reddit has lately.

Definitely, especially as someone who always felt a little reserved while writing comments in large subs, talking in a smaller community feels a little more welcoming (・ω<) I'm not too hopeful about reddit's decision making either, even though I see a lot of subs planning a strike in protest to their latest policy

I’ve been using redfugees but I think emigredditors is better

Man I knew there had to be a more witty word for this. I'd happily trade the word with redfugees XD

I kinda like the idea of a mass lemmygration.
