Does lemmy.world really have 26000 users already?
Does lemmy.world really have 26000 users already?
EDIT: Just crossed 26000!
Almost! At the time of this post, lemmy.world has a whopping 25733 users and is growing fast.
Since my last post yesterday, it has added 4000 new users, making it the clear second-largest lemmy instance out there. Also quickly catching up to lemmy.ml's 36000 (not taking new signups).
beehaw.org (3rd largest) sits at 12500 users, partly because of more restrictive registration requirements.

Exciting to see all this growth!
You're viewing a single thread.
I think Lemmy.world is the new meta right now. All Reddit refugees overflow this instance as this is the most generic one and by looking and the number of communities it’s the smarter choice.
I just hope that the influx of users won’t cause too many server issues. I can already imagine what the devs feel like to have so many active users without mentally and technologically preparing for it
Hello from kbin.social. Isn’t federation and diversity great?!
Hello from my personal lemmy instance. ;)
Oooo - get you Mr/Ms/Mx fancypants over there.
I'm trying to figure out how to make my own
It's not hard but a little challenging.. If your savvy but new to the docker world there is a nice Ansible playbook that will set it up for you. Or if you want turn key with not much tech savvy there is a managed host doing Lemmy's for 10 a month. Search on here you'll find it.
I'm going the ansible playbook version. I'll work on it this coming week when I have time.
Great... Do the ssh keys... Much easier than doing the password setup.
Great to see kbin.social rejoin everyone after the server upgrades!
In this blessed age, we are all Federation champions. Or we devolve:
Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said, "Nobody loves me." I said, "God loves you. Do you believe in God?"
He said, "Yes." I said, "Are you a Christian or a Jew?" He said, "A Christian." I said, "Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?" He said, "Protestant." I said, "Me, too! What franchise?" He said, "Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Baptist or Southern Baptist?" He said, "Northern Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist or Northern Liberal Baptist?"
He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist." I said, "Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region, or Northern Conservative Baptist Eastern Region?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region." I said, "Me, too!"
Northern Conservative†Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1879, or Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912?" He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912." I said, "Die, heretic!" And I pushed him over.
It is! Hello fellow kbinian!
Any idea how many users we have?
Server issues have been a growing pain for everyone over the past couple of weeks. Good thing lemmy.world's admin @[email protected] has experience running mastodon.world, so this server/instance has been the most stable for me.
The lemmy.world mod is active and knows what he's doing from the looks of it. He upgraded the infra recently.
According to fedidb.org, the entirety of the Lemmy network (that uses the Lemmy software) has 140,442, while the entirety of the KBin network (that uses the KBin software) has 32,830.
That includes people it knows about from Federated servers.
For the real numbers you need to use their nodeinfo, for example: https://kbin.social/nodeinfo/2.0
Kbin has 30119 right now.
you're reading it wrong, I'll maybe get to lokking up the link, but you're looking at a"users in the database" count, which includes posts from the fediverse.
kbin has ~27k usersoh,29k, that was quick
https://kbin.social/nodeinfo/2.0FediDB says kbin.social has around 30k users and fedia.io has 2.8k: https://fedidb.org/software/kbin
Now I'm confused. Who's right?
kbin.social has 29.8k local users.
157k is local + all federated servers.kbin.social has 29K currently: https://kbin.social/nodeinfo/2.0 , fedia has 2.9K
fedidb.org has roughly accurate stats or you can check the nodeinfo url for each instance to get a count of only local users to that instance
It was already very sluggish yesterday
