4 days before reddit's 3rd party app shutdown, Lemmy daily active users has skyrocketed 1400% this month
From 3000 daily active users on June 1, 2023 to 47500 on June 26, 2023.
According to Lemmy's documentation, "An active user is someone who has posted or commented on our instance or community within the last given time frame."
That's why the post used active users as a metric. From 3000 to 50000 is still quite a leap. I am actually not necessarily looking forward to 100millions users. A few thousands interesting/ed people in a given community is way more than enough.
