This feels great. The posts right now seem a lot more genuine compared to reddit lately. Keep it up!

Found my way here as part of the Grand Reddit Migration. Applying for refugee status please. (1st day on Lemmy, looks good gotta say)

Your application looks good; you just need to write an ending for the following sentence: " Fuck ..."

[–] Nostromo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Fuck that cretinous spez and his money-grabbing lobotomy business plan.

Double edged sword as it is, I'll probably prefer Lemmy anyway...

Can you hold in a poo for three days?

[–] Nostromo@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Well that's an ask. Once a year can't be that bad. Can it?

[–] VubDapple@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

We've already had a legendary post occur but I don't have a ink to the source. Can anyone help out?

Image Transcription: Line Graph


[A line graph is shown depicting the number of users on Lemmy over one month's time. The horizontal axis lists the date of each reading, with an interval shown for every day. The earliest date begins at '2023-05-28' and the most recent date is given as '2023-06-26'. The vertical axis measures the number of users, with intervals marked at every 5,000 users, with an upper limit of 50,000 users. There is a green trend like and a blue trend line graphed from plot points at every horizontal interval. The green line is labelled 'Active users monthly' shows increase over time. The line remains flat at approximately 1,000 users from the '05-28' date mark to the '05-31' mark, then begins to gradually increase to approximately 10,000 users, starting to show a trend similar to the beginning of an exponential growth curve. At the '06-11' date mark, the line begins increasing at a relatively steady rate, with the last marked date showing just over 45,000 users. There are two points in which the line shows an apparent indication of levelling off in user count, before then showing a sudden increase in users again, with neither of these points significantly impacting the overall upward trend. These points are at the dates '06-16' and '06-21'. The second graphed line, the blue line, is labelled 'Active Users Half year' and starts at approximately 3,000 users, but follows an almost identical trend shape as the green line as it increases approximately parallel to it. The blue line ends at around 48,000 users at the final graphed point.]

Just realised I have not replied to anything yet, so using this thread to check it works.

Lemmites? Make Ned Ludd proud.

Does this comment make me active now?

[–] ekZepp@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not sure, let's rise the odds together 👍

[–] Noxxeternae@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I'll contribute some activity, as well 🙂

[–] breadsmasher@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

this keeps getting touted but isn’t it a huge number of bots causing the rise?

[–] MicroWave@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Bots have inflated the total users count (around 2.4 million), but they aren't active (yet). So for now active users is a recommended way to measure the fediverse. But once bots start posting, we'll have to find another way to track real user activity.

[–] BasicWhiteGirl@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is just really disappointing and gross. Is there any way to not have bots absolutely everywhere?

[–] NotAPenguin@kbin.social -5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't see how that could be done, the bot owners can always just spin up their own new instance where they control sign up requirements.

Other instances can then defederate from the spam instance but they can quickly spin up a new one.

Gonna be interesting to see how it's solved.

[–] Drunemeton@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Require that membership in the Fediverse be approved?

[–] NotAPenguin@kbin.social -3 points 1 year ago

The fediverse is decentralized, anyone can start their own lemmy/kbin/mastodon/whatever server and make an account they just approve themselves.

If you mean some kind of global approval then that destroys the whole point of the fediverse.
