It Took 23 Days for Lemmy Posts to Double from 1 Million to 2 Million
3 years ago by Paulius to c/fediverse
I really just prefer genuine content personally. We don't need to astroturf the site.
I used to lurk like crazy on reddit. I had a nearly 12 year old account that mainly had a few comments here and there months apart, and only a few posts but ever since moving to Lemmy I've found myself actually posting relatively frequently to help build some of the smaller communities I'm in that have also migrated.
I’m exactly the same. I feel like the opportunity to have a productive conversation on Lemmy is a lot higher. There are fewer of us right now but we are the motivated minority kicking Reddit to the curb for its terrible actions and we want to see Lemmy thrive.
I still check Reddit every couple days on my laptop. I don't think they maintained a majority of their users. Engagement is way down. Most of the posts on my front page are barely hitting 2000 updoots, compared to well over 10,000 prior to July 1
(post comment edit - if you put things inside < > as your entire post, Lemmy will eat it. Cool>
Only if the content is organic. Look at !photoshopbattles@lemmy.world . Full of bot posts from reddit with 0 comments. Even if one of them gets a comment, it would get drowned out by the subsequent bot posts. Blindly filling a community with bot posts would eventually make people unsub from it.
I'm sure those bots are well intended, but I would rather not see bots just copying posts from reddit blindly. When you sort all by new, it's just a swamp of bot posts.
Edit: So I checked to verify my claim and most are from @bot@lemmit.online iirc and you can just block that account to stop seeing all the automated posts from reddit
It depends on the content.
Some of content really depends on OP being in the comments, like AmITheAsshole. Just reposting doesn't give the kind of interaction that the original post would have.
Ongoing discussion—i.e., comments replying to other comments, not just posts—drives engagement as much as content. If the post-to-comment ratio is too high, active commenters are less likely to encounter each other in the sea of automated posts.
You're doing it right. That's exactly how to build momentum! 💪
Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/fW8amMCVAJQ
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.
Hey! Some of those posts with no comments are me posting pictures of cute bugs that I took! I'm not a bot, I'm just not very interesting.
Hah, that sounds like me! I started a few communities in places where I knew I could supply some OC, and so far its been mostly just me posting my stuff, but I'm stoked whenever I get comments!
I just subbed to your nature patterns community! I love the idea! I will keep an eye out and hope I can contribute some neat things soon!
And since I notice you are a gardener, you may be interested in my !beebutts@lemmy.world community. It's about bees.. and their butts.. I've also got !awwnverts@lemmy.world for the front side of the bees, and all of their adorable invertebrate friends.
That was my initial thought. The bots are working overtime.
No doubt, it’s a chicken or egg problem.
Yeah, a ratio means nothing if the bulk of the comments are only on a small portion of the posts. If 90% of the posts have 0 comments and the other 10% have 52.7 comments per post, that’s worth knowing.
And when comments are measured, you can say 'but it's just a small group making lots of comments'.
And when users are measured, you can say 'but they're just lurkers'.
Etc, etc. You can always naysay everything. This is impressive growth.
The problem is that without an effective way to ID bot content then stats like this could be covering up the real trends in human users, particularly in any stat that purports to measure all lemmy instances since we already know there are instances out there filled with thousands of bot users
"Oh boy the line went up that must mean I'm on the winning team!"
It does need that, but it also needs dedicated posters for small niche communities that keep posting into the void so that when someone eventually stumbles over they won't go "aw it's dead here, I guess Lemmy isn't for me" but will actually find some content to engage with instead.
Assimilate this! 🔫
Be the more you want to see
Gotta start somewhere. Yell into the void! Maybe there are some ears you didn't see.
Whatchu wanna talk about, friend? Let's get niche-y!
If I have a question that I'd usually search on reddit for, i just make a post here instead and drum up content for the future, plus I usually get way more than I asked for from people as almost everyone here is a damn genius and usually very polite and understanding.
Go to your instance homepage, lemmy.ml then in the sidebar there should be a create community button, or if on mobile it may be hidden in the ... menu button
edit: accidentally deleted this comment so just reposting.
Man, I really hope more traffic starts heading into some of the more niche communities because getting a new thread every day or there and getting 1 or 2 replies - if that - is not how you sustain a site.
Are there really that few people into cars or engineering or DIY stuff on Lemmy?! Where the fuck are my fellow car and tinkering nerds at? And no one does projects around the house? So few posts in some of the home owner communities as well.
We really need more bread-stapled-to-trees content. That shit held Reddit up
What are we waiting for guys? Get your beads and let's head outside!
I think part of the problem is finding communities.
I search for things, but they all look so small I assume that can't be the proper one and end up not joining it. I'm not convinced I'm seeing the full list of what's out there.
Take it easy. Reddit has more than 400 millions users, Lemmy hasn't even broken into 70k MAU. The long tail is not yet that long here.
If we want to get rid of the walled gardens, we need to have patience and cultivate our own. Join the communities you care about and stick with a discipline of posting one or two posts every day, no matter the source. Even if you have to browse the equivalent subreddit, get the link, send a DM to the original author about it to let them know they can post on Lemmy as well.
People are not going to jump over night to here, but slowly we can win this one out.
This has been super helpful for finding communities outside of my instance lemm.ee, as many of them may not be discoverable without 1st searching for the exact community link
That's a really useful site.
I'm not sure why it's showing such a small number when I search for it using my instance. e.g. searching for "games" shows !games@lemmy.world has 83 subscribers, while your link shows 19,400. Is it just showing the number of subscribers from my instance on there, or some number when it was first found by my instance or what?
Is it just showing the number of subscribers from my instance on there
Yes, that's exactly it. It's an unfortunate product of how the backend works right now, as far as I understand it. I don't think there is a way to see the total sum of subscribers to a community from all instances right now. I think the issue has been raised on GitHub, though.
Okay. I'm going to be stupid and ask the basic question
I'm on lemm.ee and my feed is interesting enough so if I fuck with it I could make it worse.
But let's say I want to see more of https://lemmy.ml/c/asklemmy (or something smaller) on my feed how do I do that?
I was going to wait for an app and go from there. But I'm not sure which one has swam to the top of most recommended (I used rif on Reddit and enjoyed that)
Edit: I'm going to try sync. I'll work it out from that
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !asklemmy@lemmy.ml
The best way right now is to use a heavily curated Subscribed feed. At some point in the future some kind of "Multireddit"-like functionality will probably be added, either through Lemmy itself or a 3rd-party app, which will make the frontpage experience better, but for now the best way is to use an app with good content filtering for the All page and combine it with a carefully built Subscribed page.
True, I think the "lemmy is so confusing to join" concerns are overblown (just make an account?), but admittedly the community finding part is... not intuitive. People really aren't seeing everything that's out there through the standard search if their instance isn't federated with the instance where the target community is hosted, or no one on their instance has searched for that community before. Having to go offsite for tools to find communities is a poor experience.
Looking forward to having Mark on here
Where tf is Mark?!?!
Most of us are probably computer nerds right now.... And I think a lot of people are afraid of posting their own post. It's safer to just comment. But Lemmy is a very friendly community, so I think maybe people need to adjust from reddit a bit.
If you are reading this and haven't made a post, make one now. :) Even if it's just about asking why nobody posts in a specific community. Usually gets replies.
I am afraid of posting because everyone is friendly and I post hostile stuff. Willtry to post more tho.
There are dozens of us!
That's ok though, because that's how Reddit started too. They didn't add subreddits from the start. So as long as it is providing an /all experience then I don't see why it shouldn't grow from there.
Are you me?
I think the biggest problem with bootstrapping niche communities is that people interested in those topics have to search for and find the communities. There are a few resources for finding new communities such as https://lemmyverse.net/communities and the Reddit migration community, but it takes some effort.
Yes and it doesn't help that communities change servers or something and apparently if you don't change the settings you lose them from your subscribed list.
Seems like a rather shortsighted way of doing things if you ask me.
Also someone posted that the same name can be used on multiple instances, so like do you have to subscribe to all of them? Why have so many? Why would that be allowed? Makes little sense.
That's just a consequence of decentralization. That's why all names are qualified by the instance name as well. It's not perfect, but we'll, on Reddit if someone picked the sub name you wanted then you're sol and have to choose a different name, so there's pros and cons to each. Simply subscribe to the most active version of the community you're interested in and network effects will pick the winner.
What are some of those communities you're in for cars and tinkering? I was subscribed to both of those topics on reddit and am looking to join. I think there are probably lots like me who are here but not quite up and running.
I used the Communities link and searched for cars and DIY and engineering and subed to any of the ones which seem to have even a little bit of traffic (in the hopes that maybe things would increase eventually). For car ones, literally just "Cars" and "electric vehicles" are the only real one I bothered to sub to. Tried looking for Subaru or WRX stuff and that came up basically empty. For tinkering there is "3d Printing" and "woodworking" but I think the woodworking one is moving servers so it might disappear. Also "Machinist" but there's no traffic in that one. Which is the case for far too many of the ones that come up.
As I replied to someone else, it doesn't help that the content moves around. Was a post in one of the subs (are they even called subs here?) that they were changing servers which apparently would mean they'd disappear if you didn't change your settings too. For such a simple thing, you'd think it would be automatic.
they are called communities here
is it just me or is a lot of what a see are Linux/tech users mostly on lemmy, perhaps that could be why some niche communities haven't blossomed here yet. I'm really big into metalcore music, but so far, there really isn't the same type of community that rivals the Reddit metalcore version.
Those niche communities will remain dead for years (assuming Lemmy grows and doesn't die). It takes a long time to build these up.
Seems like every major transition from social media platform reduces that length of time for niche communities. It also took Reddit a while to get there as well. But people are already looking for identical communities on lemmy, like the tree ents
Where the fuck are my fellow car and tinkering nerds at? And no one does projects around the house? So few posts in some of the home owner communities as well.
I'm right here, where are you guys? Still looking for a good homeowner and DIY community on lemmy.
I've created https://communick.news/c/makers a while ago, it would be great to have more people there.
I got no problems joining a community, but I don't even see HOW to do so. Usually I see a "subscribe" button or something, but I have to sign in. But I am already signed in to Lemmy. Does this mean creating a whole new account? I don't get how and why these various sites don't work together.
We're near critical mass and the more we share the apps and website, it'll pull more people in. There's some resistance to leaving Reddit for many, but not much.
I agree completely and I think those niche subs will fill out as we grow.
Suggestion: create a post in a niche community, and then cross post into a large one.
The reason I'm yet to post any threads is because sync is yet to add that ability. But the moment it is added I've got a few things to post. For now I'll continue to upvote n comment
Over half my feed is just low effort memes or auto posted arstechnica articles. Does this data include bot posts?
Half the posts are also just people specualting about activity on lemmy.
That makes just about 100% then.
I mean I’ve been posting Moldy Memes on the memes page. Mainly just to share my ancient saved stuff, and to help boost the meme page up with more posts. I do understand the frustration, but hopefully more, active users will come around.
My feed has zero memes (except those form !risa@startrek.website which obv do not qualify as "low effort"). I think unlike with Reddit, what you see if what you subscribe to. If you don't like what you're seeing, change your subscriptions. Not having Reddit force stuff into the feed is nice but it also means everyone is fully responsible for what they're seeing.
I think unlike with Reddit, what you see if what you subscribe to.
This was also the case with Reddit, unless you intentionally went to /r/all? Or am I misunderstanding you? To clarify I always used RIF or went to old.reddit and was never force-fed any content from outside my subscriptions, when I stuck to the home-page.
If you don’t like what you’re seeing, change your subscriptions. Not having Reddit force stuff into the feed is nice but it also means everyone is fully responsible for what they’re seeing.
You make a good point, but I think here's where the current downside of Lemmy comes in, discoverability between instances are pretty bothersome and not easily handled unless you again, go to your instance /all and check what other communities other people on the instance are subscribed to.
I would assume so. But I see quite some organic content as well, with good interactions in the comment sections. I'm pretty happy. 90% of what was on reddit was of no interest to me as tends to be the case with any large content aggregator.
Half the posts since yesterday are people bitching about Sync ultra costing the same amount of money as a Costco hotdog combo once a month. 🙄
Trying to prune and maintain the All feed is a huge task at the moment, especially since some content might be the type of stuff you want to see sometimes, so just blocking News or Memes isn't a perfect solution.
Having Tags for posts for easier filtering would be great, but right now sticking to a carefully selected subscribed feed has been easier, for me at least.
There are some apps - like Connect and Sync - that allow filtering keywords, domains and entire instances, should you want to try to control your All feed.
As someone who never used Sync before, trust me, it will spike like crazy. I don't know why I never used it before but this an amazing experience. If you're reading this and trying to find a Lemmy app to use and don't care about FOSS, get Sync ASAP
As someone who has been using sync for reddit for years, the app has come a long way and learned a lot over that time, and pretty much all of that is transferred over to the Sync for Lemmy app. The sync for Lemmy app really has a huge head start thanks to the Sync for Reddit app.
I remember when Reddit was releasing their app, they appeared to base it on Sync, and you can still see a lot of that influence today. I remember the Sync dev thinking it was all over for his app, since Reddit is copying his design and surely has a team that can develop a good app, but obviously Reddit stole a good design and ruined it.
I've been using 5 different apps trying to find my favourite and I like Jerboa the most, until yesterday when I found Sync.
I tried Sync yesterday, but didn't have a lot of time to fiddle with it. What makes it so great everyone's excited? I checked it out and couldn't immediately see it having a clear edge over Jerboa and Connect (but it looked nice)
I was further thrown off by the fact that if I wanted to buy it, I'd need to pay for a yearly subscription (and in that case it didn't look cheap)
Honest question for who can answer
Boost for Reddit all time user here so I'd never tried Sync before. When I took a dive to Lemmy, I tried Jerboa because it was the closest thing to Boost, great little app, but it think it needs some aesthetic polishing. The I tried Connect, and oh boy it's fast, functional, pretty (although it needs some design polishing also), and I made it look like the closest to the classic Boost list view.
Then Sync for Lemmy was released and I wanted to know what was all the hype about. How could it be as good or better than Boost for Reddit?, I thought. Well, two days and I'm seriously thinking if I ever going to switch to Boost for Lemmy when it becomes available. Blew my mind!
Yes, there are some things not quite there yet (not being able to submit posts the major flaw for me), but design wise is just aeons ahead of any other Lemmy app.
It's just the new gold standard. Every app trying to compete for the biggest userbase will have to match or beat Sync.
Apps that ignore Sync and just target at FOSS minded users will share the remaining portion of the pie.
I only used Jerboa, but sync is far superior. Jerboa was so glitchy, it worked about half the time. Sync is very smooth and the developer is on it about fixing any glitches that may pop up. I've been using lemmy with jerboa since reddit closed the door on 3rd party apps, and I couldn't be more relieved to have sync back.
I copied this from another comment of mine. My advice is just give it a shot! The set up is super quick and the app just works.
For features: incredibly customizable material design. Extremely fluid. A lot of view customization. Comment drafts are something I missed on voyager.
Paid exclusive features: Cloud backups, user specific highlighting and theming, pull text from images, translate text, saved post folders (coming soon). No ads (yes the other apps don't have ads and are generally free).
I always thought Sync for Reddit looked cool, but never found myself comfortable with it because RIF existed, and I always felt more comfortable with it.
I'm now using Sync and it is pretty great, but in my case it required some UI fiddling. It looks like Material Design 3, but I feel there's something wrong with the default values for font and text size nothing that is unfixable, but just... Weird
That's honestly something I don't entirely get in the case of Sync. Like, there is nothing wrong with allowing users to tweak things, but Sync is like, really heavy on the Material Design 3, you look at it, and it is undoubtedly M3. Yet, there is always something odd about the way it uses it.
Take for instance, the Navigation Bar, under Material Design Guidelines it is meant for destinations. And yet, on sync it offers:
- Home. A destination of sorts
- Explore. A button to open a bottom sheet
- Inbox. Also sort of a destination
- (optionally) Actions. Also a bottom tab
The main FAB is also weird, as it isn't the primary action of the screen, it just opens a bottom sheet to bring more "actions" (some of which are destinations...)
Like, Sync is a very good app, but it has a few odd things that are really weird.
Settings shortcut: General > Base font size
I also struggled with this until I found this setting.
Ps. Be sure to set the other fonts to small, or it's going to be so large.
I really don't understand how so many apps get the default font size right, but Sync somehow appears to ignore system defaults or something? Like, I really like that it allows everyone to customize, but by default it looks like an app for ants
Sorta...? Like, the outdated part is the visual, but the rest of the app is mostly fine, so you can spin the outdated visual as being minimalist or something like that. If you just updated the components to Material Design 3 it would be functional and fine.
The same couldn't be said for Tasker for instance, which is outdated in general, and just updating the components wouldn't fix much of the issues it currently has with the UX.
Lemmy does seem to have enough content and user engagement for my needs. I've noticed engagement going up the past month but wasn't sure I was making that up in my head.
I really haven't felt the need to go back to reddit much. But the niche communities could use a lot more users posting and creating new content.
I agree with the niche stuff, but I will say I almost like having to create a post for my inquiry, and though not much engagement, what I do get is really helpful, more personal info from a few kind and knowledgeable people. So I think perhaps we should readjust our expectations and enjoy this for what it is.
I would like to thank everyone on here for the last two months or whatever it's been from the start of the migration, and to the people just coming over, and those who were here already. I actually feel like I've grown as an individual in my time here. I'm starting to see certain patterns in my own behavior and working on them thanks to the content and the engaging discussions on here. I used to avoid interaction and lost all hope, but you are all really awesome. Thank you <3
First comment ever on lemmy! With reddit and the latest update moving shtiff around, it's gotten to a point where I no longer want to be apart of that app. Not mentioning the money grubbing infants over there... So I'm trying this one out! Thanks for staying open and active! 👍
There are dozens of us lurking!
DOZENS!!!
Fourth!
Yeah, I'm here too!
Was waiting for Sync upgrade and finally I'm a daily active user of Lemmy. Finally I will be useful for the community 🥂
Right now my modus operandi is to post once in each community I see that I can provide anything for.
Thanks!
Lurker here mostly but happy to find a new home!
I'm not sure exactly how the Fediverse Observer calculates the day-to-day totals, but my speculation for the dips in the graph is:
- Some of Lemmy's servers/instances going offline could cause the total to go down;
- Post deletion could also contribute to the total going down.
These dips in the graph confused people in my previous post, as the dips were suggesting that the graph represents 'new posts by day.' I edited the title in the screenshot this time to clarify it is total by day.
Post deletions?
I'm new to Lemmy and I am using Sync for Lemmy but so far none of my comments are showing up. I'm attempting to comment from my browser this time and I hope it works.
Edit: my comments seem to be showing in browser but not via Sync for Lemmy. Can someone recommend different Lemmy app?
Edit: you guys are great, I uninstalled and restarted and now my comments are showing up along with all your replies that just popped up at once!
Honestly thats all Lemmy needs. Just more content body. This software is already a really amazing drop in replacement for reddit. To be honest its easier to navigate the federation aspect with Lemmy than it is for other federated services like mastodon in my opinion.
Joined yesterday coming here from Reddit. My favourite app no longer works (Reddit is fun) and I just can't get myself to use the official app. Lemmy seems pretty cool so far, only missing a few subs that were not super large on Reddit but are not really viable here due to a small number of users. Hopefully that will change if the number of users keeps growing so fast.
Thanks for the tip
I'm here for the same reason. RIF finally stopped working and I found Sync. Slowly but surely I'm finding communities that interest me but I'm not sure how to setup "a feed" just yet. I'm not going back to Reddit (it's literally becoming a bot and self promotion farm) so I hope to find positive ways to contribute here.
I bit the bullet after I read there the Sync app was released. Now I'm lurking until I find the communities I love best... and it feels like they're already starting to spring up. If I had the time to, I'd make and mod them myself.
I know a lot of communities are trying to get more popular by using bots to post relevant content. And generally they do a great job, its like an aggregator inside an aggregator. woa dude. Post engagement might be a better metric, but this graph is visually more impressive.
What happened on July 29th?
At first I thought it was Sync coming out, but it came out on August 2
There was a problem with lemmy.world where it would not sync with other federation. It has been fixed now.
The client doesn't store passwords at all, but the client does store your token in localStorage (it's necessary so that we can make authenticated requests). The only way your account could get hacked is if they gain access to your browser and look through localStorage. If they have access to your computer, you have other problems though. If they do gain access, you can invalidate the JWT by changing your password.
This is surprising. Hopefully organic driven growth instead of bullshit statistics like threads and their stupidity.
If RiF ports their app to Lemmy, have it as nearly functionally as it was on Reddit as possible while accommodating the ways lemmy is different, I think it would be a winner.
And a hearty F.U. to reddit
Want to see more people commenting on threads that have nothing to do with how well Lemmy is doing.
That chart gives me 2017 crypto vibes and I dig it
TBH reading "their" opinion on Russia and the Russia war I can see why people would just simply want them to stay within their weird island. Well defederation is still not a cool option in general for the platform as a whole but I can see how admins of instances read stuff like that and can't help but let their own opinion influence their decision. I would probably stay away from these as well.
I can sort of understand why tbf. Just playing the devil's advocate here but the issue is that today it's fine and shitposts are shitposts but Poe's law will come into action at some point.
That's not the actual reason. Hexbear was openly advocating for their "army" to brigade other instances once it was federating. It just so happens that the basis of that brigading was going to be political.
Lemmy.world pre-emptivly decided it wasn't worth the hassle of having to deal with that.
Hexbear only recently started opening itself up to federation. It’s one of the old leftist instances that was around before the reddit api fiasco. Think lemmygrad but more tolerant and pro-lgbtq.
Basically the powers that be determined that Hexbear "violated" Lemmy's TOS by being a little too right wing (their opinion) and therefore chose on behalf of the entirety of Lemmy that the instance should be defederated.
I live here but to be clear, lemmy.world is not "the entirety of Lemmy".
Hexbear is left wing.
#LemmyDrama
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I find it funny when people cry "FrEdOoM oF eXpReSsIoN" when instances defederate. Isn't this the whole point and the good thing about federated social media? People who own the instances decide what to do with their instances
Well I'm not helping much, just lurking with a few comments. Hell yeah go us
At that rate lemmy will reach 1 billion in 184 days
Are you nerd-sniping? Cause that comment is begging for an xkcd reference 😁 → https://xkcd.com/605/
Maybe
Which is the end of another xkcd reference: https://xkcd.com/552/
I'm cool with that. The only bots should be the AutoMod ones to help weed out the bullshit.
I approve reposter bots tho. More specifically I also made a bot to repost some content from niche subreddits to here.
Also just people initially drawn in by fomo but unable to purge their Reddit addiction (me)
Burn, reddit, burn.
Thank for helping me fight my Social Media addiction. You guys made it look easy
We're doing the thing!
Very good, I hope this platform has a bright future. We really need more like this, out of the control of giant companies.
At the same time, I hope they will develop more features to make it harder for content to disappear if an instance every goes down and for users to migrate their accounts.
That's a lot of shit
Could you license this image under CCBY so that it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons? I'd add it to here. Let me know if that's okay or if CCBY is mentioned somewhere.
Great growth so far. How does this compare to Reddit?
I'm almost purely a mobile user - as soon as sync enables post generation I'm all over it.
Is 29 July sync?
July 30 comments when from 7.1 million to 9.9 million. In a single day?
Very nice, now lets see the data about how many new communities are being created on lemmy
This is the way. It doesn't have to happen all at once. Positive growth is good.
Hello @PatFussy@lemm.ee
How about the current situation? These numbers are soon a year old!
Great scot! 1.21 Gigawatts of active users!
Interesting, I just joined because of Reddit banning me for a Gorlock the Destroyer meme
Let's goooooo!
Crazy, i Like IT
it's yuuuuuge!
Well, a bunch of them are reddit bot posts
I came for the first time back in 6/18/23 and im still coming now!
It would be interesting to see this on a log scale. Simple enough to do, but I'm on mobile and I'm not that interested
For the Lemmy!
It would be faster if we knew how to use this whole fediverse thing
Somebody should make an app that uses the anonymous Reddit JSON API to copy the popular Reddit posts and post them over here.
and those post are 98% about reddit lmao
First you have to install the revanced manager onto your phone.
Then uninstall the play store Reddit app if you still have it. And install a version of Reddit from here I believe you want a bundled version but it'll tell you if that's wrong when you try patch it with revanced.
Finally open the revance manager and find Reddit, click the patches you want - it's quite limited still and you'll probably only want to select the remove ads patch but have a read, there might be 2 or 3 you want. If there's an error try downloading a slightly older Reddit apk.

Impressive, I guess, but how many of those 2 million posts have a single comment? If 90% of these are just bots reposting things from Reddit with no further engagement…
