Does anyone have data on the number of Lemmy users currently? I saw Lemmy.world has about 12k now (yay!), but I was wondering if there are any estimates regarding the increase from the Reddit exodus.

    Sh.itjust.works is up to 2.7k.

    Edit: Also I should thank Ruud, he helped our admin (TheDude) out with a server configuration issue yesterday and the server has been buttery smooth ever since.

        Yeah I joined 5 days ago and it had fewer than 100 users. It was started 7 days ago by TheDude. Been a wild ride, really similar to what you guys have experienced here on a slightly smaller scale.

        For those that are interested in the configuring changes. I was using the default lemmy configuration for the nginx worker_connections value. This value needed to be raised. Shout out to @[email protected] over at lemmy.world for helping me out.

          Ah, of course! Thanks for sharing that info. 👍

          !remindme … oh… wait… can someone remind me tomorrow please?

          I’ll reconfigure mine in the morning.

          Update: no one reminded me! 😢
