On the Lemmy specific front, Active daily users seems to still be stabilising following the exodus from elsewhere, Comments and Posts both seem to be on the rise though – promising stats all in all.
What are the differences between our links, as I don’t see any at all?
Would embed a picture If I could but on mobile currently.

You need to put the URLs between the parentheses instead. Or simply just paste the URLs directly without any markdown.
Excellent. Never going back to reddit.
Reddit lost basically 90% of its appeal to me when they banned third party apps. I am also sleeping better since purging it out of my life so screw that.
Forward, not backward. Upward, not forward, and ever twirling, twirling toward freedom!
Just to clarify, this wouldn’t account for people making multiple accounts, right? I know people who have a mastodon, kbin, and Lemmy account.
Hey, honestly I’m unsure. Though my gut instinct would be that it does include those instances, hadn’t considered it.
The number of users dropping in June when many bot accounts were removed, and then rising again at the same time that >1500 new servers were added, while MAU does not rise at the same rate, seems to suggest that many are in fact likely bots?
However, the MAU is rising, so that indeed is a sign of health even if the precise amount of traffic by humans is unknown.
And bot accounts serve useful purposes too, sometimes posting more worthwhile content than many humans.:-)
Congrats!
Now if we can only keep the bots at bay!
As a person who recently left one community, and found lemmy, I’m very thankful.
Agreed, I sure am glad Lemmy was here to catch us. What would we have done if it hadn’t been ready and waiting?
Based on the usual suspects from that one sub dedicated to alternatives: tildes, mastodon, or maybe one of the few devs who somehow managed to build their own alternative from ground up in a few weeks (how though?). The true question is, whether or not these other options would be worthwhile replacements and retain the refugees.
