Welcome new reddit expats!
Tracking sites are lagging behind a bit, but so far lemmy.world is attracting the majority of new users since the reddit API shutdown.
The other big instances like lemmy.ml and beehaw.org are super slow today even though they’re barely taking on new users. My hunch is people are scouting different lemmy instances and settling for lemmy.world because it’s the most stable at the moment.
