That’s fair I suppose.
I wonder if they’re afraid of Eternal September’ing the service. A lot of people on Lemmy were upset when a bunch of people on Reddit joined. I can’t imagine what it would be like to have millions join in one day. I doubt it would be good for the culture of the community!

How many active users were there pre API fisaco? Fedidb graph doesn’t go back that far.

Lemmy had around 1000 active users for the first half of 2023.

As someone who used lemmy pre migration, yeah it wasn’t exactly active

How did you view earlier in the chart? I figured it was low since maybe five instances existed before summer '23.

I didn’t; I made the chart almost a year ago, click on the link above it to see the 11-month-old comment.

Most of the people upset when redditors joined were former redditors.

Yeah but they left before us so clearly they’re superior.
