I mean have they seen how good Ice Cubes and Mlem look? How can they choose the default Twitter and Reddit apps over those masterpieces.

People here are so out of touch here; it’s super interesting
In a way, it’s a good sign. The threadiverse is tight-knit and comprehensive enough to become people’s primary social site. I’ve never seen any other reddit alternative get to this point.
It became my primary. Had never heard/understood federated-internet anything before lemmy. And it’s been a really good time here
Reddit is now just a Quora for me, when I’m using a search engine. I don’t scroll Instagram, but just look at what (3) people send me. Facebook is for rare use-cases, so I haven’t deleted my account. YouTube I watch, rarely scroll, and don’t interact. And I think that’s about it currently
Lemmy has it’s own issues/flavor for sure… but I dig it. I learned my first forum basics from Something Awful, and there’s a certain vibe here that reminds me of that. The fediverse (threadiverse? I haven’t heard that term) feels like an internet community center or something
threadiverse is for threaded apps like lemmy and kbin, as in practice they’re mainly a seperate network from things like mastodon.
Discuit still has less than 200 weekly commenters: https://discuit.net/DiscuitMeta/post/HCHvcmBc
Lemmy has 42000 monthly active users
That explains why I recognize people all the time. We’re basically a small city
What is the standard for counting the active user? As a lurker, I don’t think I would be counted.
Voting, commenting or posting. With this comment, you’re active.
Dang, those numbers are moving though. Not bad.
I don’t think so, just activists who like to complain about not enough people being aware of the alternative.
