Lemmy.world grew by about 40% on the first day of reddit migration - Lemmy.world

Lemmy.world [https://lemmy.world/] grew from around 51000 total users the moment 3rd party reddit apps started to shut down on June 30 to 71000 total users at the time of this post (July 1). That’s a 40% growth in about 12 hours! Welcome newcomers!

Honestly, I didn’t believe this would happen. I thought all who wanted to migrate have done this already and there would be maybe a couple hundred people joining us today. I’m glad I was wrong. Gives me hope in people of the Internet standing up for what they deserve.

I fully converted yesterday because I was holding out hope that reddit would do the right thing.

We vote with our dollars and our actions. Consider this a vote for freedom.
