What do you think is responsible for lemmy’s growth over other alternatives like KBin and Tildes? - Lemmy.world

Is it speed? Features? Ease of development? Just curious why lemmy is seeing more activity as opposed to other networks.

When I was browsing options, Tildes didn't even allow sign-ups. I tried multiple days and eventually said fuck it and checked other options, settling on kbin.

Tildes was always invite only. Granted it is (or was at the time, maybe they slowed down with the influx) really easy to get your hands on one by just asking on r/tildes (or email).

Hell, the site being readable by the general public is a relatively recent introduction compared to it's history.

I just messaged you an invite in case you’re still interested. :)
Thanks! I appreciate it. I signed up and will give it another go.
