I don’t understand how Lemmy.world developers managed to surpass both Lemmy.ml and Beehaw.org instances in user activity.
minus-squareWhoRoger@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-21 year agoLemmy.ml actively asked people to sign up elsewhere. They have a small server and aren’t meant to be a general instance. Lemmy.world is run by people who have one of the larger Mastodon servers, and actively advertises to be open and neutral.
minus-squareDrunemeton@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoIt’s also the devs server and they have Lemmy code to write. Can’t be spending time moderating.

And the other stuff
