How many millions of users does it have? How many posts? How active are they?
Still pretty active I’d say
About 0.04 million monthly active users
There are dozens of us?
Not sure, but compared to about a year ago, it seems more active.
The real answer: https://lemmy.ca/post/35073012
Remember when forums would be super active with, like, 500 users?
“Millions of users” is a vanity stat. The critical mass needed to keep a discussion group alive is actually quite small – assuming you’re interested in, you know, discussing things. So, how active “Lemmy” is is entirely dependent on which topics you’re interested in.
There’s enough shit posts to keep most people happy.
Can’t give precise numbers, but at least that I can notice, despite greatly filtering what I check, there’s enough stuff to make running out of stuff to check rather unlikely. Besides, as I started using RSS feeds a lot recently, mainly for federated platforms (not just Lemmy ones), and the reader I use can hide posts marked as read, it’s being a struggle to lower the number of posts to read in comparison to the sum of posts automatically pulled during the set up of each link.
