minus-squarecabbagelinkfedilinkEnglish26•19 days agoIf I saw this question posted the first time I visited Lemmy (some months before the Reddit app drama) with “popular” being defined as the current level of activity, my clear answer would be a loud and clear “probably not”.
minus-squarecabbagelinkfedilinkEnglish8•19 days agoI meant to say that I would never have believed back then that Lemmy would become as popular as it is today. My point is that it’s a moving target. Reddit has a billion active users. Instagram has two billion. I don’t think these make sense as targets.
