Does lemmy.world really have 19000 users already? - Lemmy.world

Okay, it’s actually 18955 at the time of this post. I’m looking at https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list [https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list] and lemmy.world has already passed beehaw.org [http://beehaw.org] by a large margin for second place. Can’t wait for this place to start filling out! UPDATE: 5 minutes after the post, it’s now 19061. Officially more than 19000!

I think it's growing the fastest from all the servers since you don't have to write a line or two for the application!
Heh writing the application was part of the fun! :D No, really, I think that at least in Beehive, it is an important step: It ensures a minimum understanding of the environment of the instance and its mission, and as long as the option to join other instances is there, why not?
I agree, having to spend a minute to write something is good, my server also does it.
