I can’t find it now. The number that I saw was 1.09 million, but I can’t find the site I saw it on now. I think a bunch of them must be purged spam accounts maybe.

Please for anyone reading, just be patient. Keep posting and commenting and it WILL grow. There are only like 1.2 million Lemmy users versus hundreds of millions of redditors.

If you follow the 90-9-1 rule, that leaves very few actual contributors and still Lemmy has a lot of good content daily. Just be patient and it will come.

I don’t generally block anyone on social media. I don’t want to block racists and then not be able to report their racism.

I was trying to but the instance was down.

Yes, I’m sure.

As more people join these kinds of things will change and evolve. Hopefully the site infrastructure will adapt to it as well.

I’m here from reddit, too, so the number just went up one more.
