It's nice seeing how much Lemmy is growing. I knew there would be an influx of new users from the 30th, but it's honestly nice seeing more comments overall and posts getting upvoted.

Yeah, I was expecting a small bump of new people when the 3PAs shut down, but the absolute deluge we've been getting is a pleasant surprise. RIF sending its users here has a lot to do with it, I think.

That's why I'm here. Just opened the app for the first time since the beginning of the month and was sent here. It's a bit strange, but I'm sure I'll figure it out.

Welcome! Hopefully you enjoy the discussion enough to put up with the growing pains of a new platform, but if not I won't hold it against you!

I didn't know RIF sent peeps here, but funnily enough I was a RIF user and now I'm here.

Third party apps for Reddit. Apollo, RIF, Sync, Baconreader, etc.
