Fediverse

I don't know how many users reddit has, but it is a lot more than lemmy. Lemmy is quite small in terms of number of users.

But I think focusing on relative numbers of users is a mistake. Forty thousand people is still a lot of people. And we can see that it is enough people to create a vibrant community with a steady stream of good content and conversations. So the fact that it is small compared to other social media is not really relevant, in my opinion. Having a thousand times more users doesn't make things a thousand times better - that's for sure.

(That said, I do think its worth noting if the number of users is going up or down... because if there was a significant downward trend, that would be a bad sign.)

Well, in your case, even if Reddit has 8 billions users, you still wouldn't be able to access it, so why worry?

You know how on reddit people comment to tell you to google, argue, etc. Here they just answer the question or move on, it's wonderful.
