This is the growth of our lemmy instance, without any advertising or spruiking. It was spun up as a test more than anything else, but it seems that it has become more than that!
Even though the graph shows the growth spike from April to June, in reality it’s even more stark than that. We have gone from 20 users to 100 users in a week!
We’ll be spinning up a kbin instance soon too, and when we do, we might shut down registration on the lemmy instance. We’ll keep them up for now though, given the load on lemmy.ml from reddit migrations

Excitement! 🥳
I’m really interested to see how this goes: both comparisons setting up and maintaining the two apps, as well as your experience with any eventual transition/consolidation. This kind of trailblazing is so cool.
yes a great opportunity to experiment. thanks for doing this!
