wow. a hundred thousand new users in less than a week, or to put it another way 125% growth in six days

Not just a doubling of users though. There's been a massive explosion in activity from all users, more than just a doubling.

Yes, I've been much more active on kbin that I was on Reddit. Mostly because I'd like to help build the new community, but also because I find it engaging and welcoming.

yeh true. eg redditors are using lemmy to do stuff and kbin for surfing. at least i'm doing that simply because the feed loads up faster and has more content
