Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn't the thing that makes a social media site, it's the engagement

So even if you're used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!

If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they're more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they'll just go back to reddit

that's very interesting. my instance shows the same stats as lemmy.ml - I am thinking this is possibly due to more restrictive federation settings on the NSFW instance - one thing that looks a bit odd is that on NSFW there are hardly any subscribers to their non-local communities, so I think perhaps they are restricting this locally - are you able to subscribe to [email protected]?:
