Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn't the thing that makes a social media site, it's the engagement

So even if you're used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!

If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they're more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they'll just go back to reddit

Hi, I'm here! Signed up on an instance a few days ago with all this BS going on at Reddit, and I just read the "AMA" with spez. Absolutely ridiculous. I would love to see Lemmy take off. Just trying to get the hang of it at the moment, and I hope an iPhone app comes.

I am glad u/iamthatis saved the recordings because u/spez is a liar. I live in a one-party consent state myself, so I know what u/iamthatis did was legal.

There is an iOS app! It’s called Mlem and it’s in beta right now and anyone can be a tester.

Oh thank you! I just downloaded the TestFlight and it definitely seems to be inspired by Apollo. I can't wait to see Lemmy take off!

The most pathetic performance of an AMA in the history of AMAs. Maybe ever.
