Lemmy.world grew from around 51000 total users the moment 3rd party reddit apps started to shut down on June 30 to 71000 total users at the time of this post (July 1). That’s a 40% growth in about 12 hours!

    I accessed reddit through the Sync app and actually didn’t realise it was just going to stop working. I’m still not really sure what’s going on here, this is my first experience of the fediverse. I like learning new things.

      The sync dev is working on a sync for lemmy, I think he said aiming for 4 weeks. He made a channel in his discord for info.

      Me too. When sync stopped working it was the kick in the pants I needed.

      I used the official app once today and just felt dirty.

        I haven’t even tried the official app, i went onto the website to look at the Sync sub just to check it wasn’t a temporary bug or anything and saw a load of links to here so thought I’d check it out.
