Does any one know a way to quantify the growth of lemmy/ the fediverse?

It would be an interesting shot across the bow to corporate controlled social media to show opensource, open access social medias growth. I'm sure its in an exponential phase. It also would seem important to the community to know. Is there a way to query across the fediverse to look at user numbers?

That looks like a glitch, I dont remember anything special happening at that time.

The Lemmy project website is now rebuilt automatically every hour (join-lemmy.org)

I saw the impressive setup used by the sh.itjust.works instance with 24 CPUs and 64 GB RAM. This inspired me to reconfigure join-lemmy.org so that it can quickly update the instance list, and point users to sites which are actually reachable. This will be an immense help if a lot of Reddit users decide to join Lemmy at once...

Because its a different project. Does the Mastodon website list Pleroma or Friendica instances?

Thanks for the suggestions, I just applied them. However I dont see any packages/environments that you mention.

Ah thanks, I unchecked all of them as we arent using releases either.

That would favor older instances, I dont think its a real solution.

It could be mentioned in the documentation.

Instances have different topics and moderation, so it should be left to each person which one they prefer to join.

Its a different project, wouldnt make sense to send people there from the official Lemmy website. Besides the list is built by calling the Lemmy API so it wont work with kbin on a technical level.

The order of recommended instances is randomized, there is a different one at the top each time you reload.

There is horizontal scaling through federation. Even if lemmy.ml, beehaw.org and lemmy.one go down, users can still join instances like sh.itjust.works. The instance list on join-lemmy.org works as a load balancer.

Great, can you make a pull request?

Perfect, can you make a pull request?

Counting methods are probably different, Lemmy stats only count users that posted at least once in the interval. I assume Reddit counts anyone who opens the site.

Because we dont want to moderate porn, simple as that. Other instances are free to do this differently.

Locking this thread as the discussion isnt going anywhere productive. If you dont like the moderation in !worldnews, you can subscribe to a different one or create your own.

How has ur lemmy experience been so far?

Im joining in on the reddit ditching thing, and was kinda worried at first that i wouldnt be able to like use it the way i did reddit as it feels like a whole new place, but after engaging with posts and people and actually being a part of lemmy rather than being lurk mode all the time i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it...

Currently its running on a vps with 8 vcpu for 30 euros per month.

Impressive setup! Would you be interested to have your instance recommended on the Lemmy project website?

Have a look at this: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible/pull/75

Sending proper cache-control headers from Lemmy will require some big code changes though.
