I discovered lemmy back when reddit started to charge for their API. However upon taking a look at it, it seemed that apart from like 8 communities,there was not much going on elsewhere. Things seem to have changed since then, quite a lot of active communities these days. So how many users do yall reckon lemmy has now? Is it close to 5M? or perhaps even higher?

    It’s small enough I recognize users all the time, which is kind of nutty, and I’m not even a heavy user I think.

        Me too. On Voyager you can add personal tags for people. It also displays how often you’re upvoting or downvoting each user account. Very helpful for keeping track of who’s who!

          Now I’m imagining someone has me tagged as “data slut” from a thread last week about our jobs

      You’re such a light user that when I try to look at your post history, my client says you don’t exist!

        That’s by design! I rotate alt accounts every now and then to keep my footprint light. :-)
