Per the title, is Lemmy actually growing, or will it stagnate and fade into obscurity like many other similar discussion boards?

    From the perspective of someone who has been on Lemmy for a few years now, I’ll say that the amount of content here has become large enough for me to use Lemmy as a “daily driver” account. I don’t miss out on important news or updates by using Lemmy instead of Reddit…in fact it often feels quite the opposite

      Hard agree. I see the same usernames over here also so I’ve can actually foster a conversation with people. Reminds me of when Reddit communities were good and not controlled by the corporations.

      It’s mostly fine, but sometimes I still miss stuff. For example, I haven’t seen anything on the Spanish ski lift incident on here (it’s probably somewhere), but I bet that would have popped up for me on Reddit.

      (And I think I have done a pretty good job of curating my experience here)
