Lemmy.world grew from around 51000 total users the moment 3rd party reddit apps started to shut down on June 30 to 71000 total users at the time of this post (July 1). That's a 40% growth in about 12 hours!

We definitely felt the ship groaning through all this. Thankfully the Ruud-er skillfully navigated through this, and the software update on top.

Anyways, welcome to Lemmy 17!

Lemmy 17? We're on 0.18.0, buddy. 😆

[–] [email protected] 66 points 1 year ago (1 children)

0.18.1, guy

[–] [email protected] 42 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I’m not your guy, pal.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I’m not your pal, mate.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He's not your mate, budday.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm not your budday, muchacho.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I'm not your muchacho, partner

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I am not your muchacho, amigo

Hopefully this doesn't interrupt the flow, but I definitely read this in Jamie Tartt's voice.

Ahh, look at that reply string we started. It's feeling like home around here already.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago (3 children)

And my axe!

Edit: Thanks for the gold, kind stranger!

You get a lemon, that's the best I can do.

You took it too far

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Oh God lol

And not a moment too soon!

I'm so glad the auto refresh bug on the main page is finally gone after the software update.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Would it be too dramatic to say it's changed my life?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

It made me whole again

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

How so?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it was REALLY weird bug!
