From 2,997 active users across all lemmy instances at the beginning of June, the number increased to 52,797 by June 30th. Source.
An active user on Lemmy is "someone who has posted or commented on our instance or community within the last given time frame.” Source. That means lurkers are not counted as active users.
We’re really building something here!
“But once you understand how federation works, it doesn’t matter much because you can subscribe to communities on other instances using the same account.”
I’m obviously still figuring this out, but this doesn’t appear to be completely true, depending on the community. I subscribed to a community on another instance and the content isn’t the same when I visit it from this instance.
I made a post on that thread https://lemmy.world/comment/690842
Yeah beehaw.org is the big exception to that statement. They’re probably the strictest instance out there, and the result is that beehaw content does not sync properly.
Good to know that is a possibility. Thanks for explaining.
