The jump in posts over the last month is incredible. I find Lemmy quickly replacing Reddit which is great.

Not just number but quality. It was all memes at the start, now actual conversation is happening in more than just a few posts.

Good point! I’m hoping for some of the more niche communities to start becoming more active. Things are trending in the right direction though.

They will. My experience community building thus far is that if you can build up one anchor community to the point where people are organically sharing content and commenting, other adjacent communities will start to generate the same sorts of things with smaller subscriber bases because that anchor community is keeping people's eyes here. Just a question of time.

I'm usually a lurker, but I decided to just go ahead and make one that I was missing. Something about personally wanting Lemmy to grow is motivating to me.

I made an XCOM community on Lemmy.world, and even though I'm the only one posting so far, it's fun to watch the subscriber count grow. Already at 50!

Please definitely don't be discouraged in the slightest, TPM.

Single-game forums were almost always the smallest gaming subreddits on Reddit, often times being several orders of magnitude smaller than the "gaming in general" communities.

But that special feeling of having other people passionate about that specific game you love can't be beat. Hang in there, and you'll definitely grow and get that engagement in time.

The best thing you can do to help is to comment on threads. I know it feels weird to comment in an empty post, but it does tend to spur lurkers to respond.

Phillies fan checking in. Agree. I have a community with a bot that posts game updates like Reddit (which is nice) but the game threads are mainly me posting once or twice and one or two other people with side off comments. No community engagement so to speak. Long way from the Reddit game threads of several thousand comments.

Shameless plug for !baseball@fanaticus.social (check out our sidebar for the team-specific communities). We've got the game bots ported over and are working on improving them and adding new features.

I agree with !matt@lemmy.world though, the Venn diagram of sports fans and tech-savvy lemmy pioneers is pretty small. You can help by posting and commenting to attract more users. More content == more users (eventually).

You need both though. Memes and shitposts to scroll though and chuckle, and then quality stuff to engage on. Lemmys got that, and the momentum will keep it growing.

I tried lemmy like a year or so ago, and it felt so stale. The technology is there, but the content just wasn’t. That’s clearly changed now. 😊

Yep, also an easier way to explore/sign up and filter instances and their different pages. I'm new and have no idea what I'm doing regarding that. So far I'm just signing up to instances and hoping new interesting stuff appears on my page.. I'm on Lemmy.world as I assume we all are, how do I view the different pages on this instance or is it all just in a singular feed?

It's also about search engine indexing. It's happening slowly, but I've noticed Lemmy posts are finally beginning to show up in Google/Bing search results. As this trend improves, more people will stumble here by accident and then join out of curiosity.

I thought I was gonna be able to quit Reddit full time. Didn’t look for a few days, then did. Still check since some niche communities aren’t over here (or active) yet so I have to go there. But I only still check every few days (I was a several time a day redditor so usage is down) and I’ll check Lemmy at least once or twice a day now.

I posted one yesterday on a major Subreddit. It did get a bit of hate. Couple of people signed up. Some of that hate seems to be bots, complaining that there’s no mobile app, and that it looks like old Reddit.

I’ll keep monitoring, to see if it gets shadow removed. I bet a lot of the major subreddits are running on skeleton crews, so they can’t get everything.

I'm doing my part. I had two posts on Reddit. One was superniche and got 30ish points. Whatever, I was happy. It had useful info for the other people on the sub. Then I posted something to the broader community and got two downvotes in like 1 second, killing it. How did they even look at it? I think someone was sitting there gleefully downvoting every fucking thing. I never posted again.

I've been here since mid June and have made 264 posts, like WTF. I'm having more fun here than I ever did on Reddit and I don't get that sick feeling I used to get from seeing all the outrage posts and mean comments (to everyone, not just me).

Looks like the title is incorrect, and it's actually posts per day. At least, the graph shows a few days where the number goes down, so it can't be just the total number of posts (unless there was a wave of deletions outpacing the posts).

Edit: according to other people's comments, it is actually total posts, not posts per day. So my above comment seems to be incorrect.

Well count me in. It took me two weeks to successfully create an account, but it finally didn't crap out on me.

Maybe this is the good thing. Let Reddit stay filled with the lowest common denominator and divisive politics. Making Lemmy a little more hassle than the common user wants to experience to get into might be the only thing that keeps it from becoming the ban heavy echo chamber Reddit is.

What's funny is I've been getting 10x more replies since the announced api changes which is odd. Before they were announced I would comment many times a day but rarely ever get many replies. Since the api change announcement? I've been staying off mostly bc fuck that place but when I have checked my account there have been 10-20 replies a day to older comments. Weird. Tin-foil-hat me feels like maybe there was a reduction of interaction after he screwed everyone over and maybe he's using bots to make it seem lively. Definitely seen an increase in bot comments

It makes sense, I mean consider that these big social media platforms started making sweeping changes the moment the technology to accurately emulate humans became available for mass integration. Changes that would Inevitably lead to an exodus of a significant number of users.

Now you can trick the real users by claiming you're still operating just the same as before when in reality half the website is just GPT bots and the population has taken a massive hit.

There's no way they'd have been this confident in their choices without a backup plan like subsidizing with generative AI, which means their timing is either coincidental as fuck or exactly where you'd expect it to be based on the invention of the technology they need to ensure longevity.

Filtering by rising and posting meta jokes was the standard if you wanted to get seen and interacted with.

I think the hot algorithm here is weighted better. It pulls up brand new comments on a similar weight to older comments with hundreds of points, which makes people more likely to see and interact with new comments. The Activity and New Comments post sorts also prioritize ongoing discussions, which I think is pretty cool.

I was not a hardcore reddit user. I made just 2 or 3 posts in those few years I was using reddit. I was mainly reading posts and comments.

But today I wanted to browse reddit and I couldn't, and I didn't want to use official app, because it's just crap, so I registered on Lemmy, searched for Lemmy app, found Connect, installed it, tried it and I have to say I kinda like it.

Since the 30th I've stopped going on reddit, but I must admit I still don't participate here as much because the content I'm seeing it's not as tailored to my interests as I'd like. Searching for communities tends to show a lot of communities with no participation at all, which is useless.

Also wished there was a video player. Being constantly redirected to youtube is a bit annoying.

But I'm very happy with Memmy for Lemmy. Not as polished as Apollo, but close enough. And Lemmy feels freer from bot/ai/ad content, and that is worth gold.

Check out https://lemmyverse.net/communities

You can sort by posts, comments, subscribers, etc. plus other useful filters. It’s currently the best tool for finding active communities - especially if you’re on a smaller instance.

It’s useful because it shows numbers across all instances - not just in relation to your own.

You can see that some of the top communities are not English speaking, which may be why you don’t see them in your feed.

Worth noting that Hexbear.net has 274,000 posts but isn't included in this data because it's not federated. Unless that jump on the 21st of June is it. Would be funny that Hexbear is more than 25% of the posts singlehandedly.

The linked page specifically tracks Lemmy, although it's not clear to me whether it's tracking posts by users from Lemmy instances or posts to Lemmy instances, which is a medium-sized distinction (the latter would include kbin, Mastodon and other Fediverse users who are posting to Lemmy from their home instance, while the former would obviously include only Lemmy users).

I played around with Friendica years ago, it wasn't at the time much to get into. The idea was to setup a Facebook like server that we could use for our family only. Ended up tearing that instance down as we didn't really like it at the time. I'm really excited about Lemmy though, so much so I again, went and setup my own corner of the lemmy-verse. The ideals this is built upon are the ideals that grabbed me into the internet so long ago, freedom and resiliency and the ability to discover something new, not have some algorithm throw it at you. I look forward to seeing this platform continue to grow and being a more active participant in it. Go LEMMY!

Looks like just posts from Lemmy instances. Now, are replies posts? I don't think so, I think it's original topics. But many replies from Lemmy users are going to be to outside sources, so there's a lot going on!

It's half way up a line at the start of the graph, and the end of the graph is at 8 lines tall, so by my math I'd say it looks like 16x vs roughly the actual ~4x improvement.

And 90% of them have been bitching about reddit, talking about reddit, or asking how we can make the fediverse more like reddit. I'd love to contribute more, but there is honestly very little in the way of content here outside of the reddit exodus, besides basic memes and nsfw bullshit pages which are already getting flooded with bots selling OnlyFans subs. People have talked about how much higher quality the posts are here, but I don't see it at all.
