It's been a while since I last seen anyone posting graphs showing user base growth. Are we past the initial rush and bleeding numbers now?

That’s possible. I think kbin/lemmy were less ready to replace Reddit yet for most users this time.

There was one guy in office who posts screenshots of funny Reddit posts in slack. Guess which app was he using! Official Reddit iOS app.

The two mayor problems here are:

1- The Fediverse's current lack of network infrastructure (on the idea that it pretends to be an alternative to both Reddit and Twitter).

2- The lack of an app that satisfies the users needs, while also having a nice layout and stability.

I do still have hope though, as Boost for Lemmy is yet to release.

Connect is fine, been doomscrolling on it for weeks with no issues.

Thunder is neat. Please note that Thunder lacks the ability to edit posts.

Same, for better or worse.

It genuinely doesn't matter. I'd prefer it if it would stay at this level. Reddit sucks now. This is like Reddit was 13 years ago.
