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. There are currently almost 200k total users spread across the top 10 non-bot lemmy instances.
We’re really building something here!

This is a blast from the past. It takes me back to 13 or so years ago when all of us Digg users made the migration over to Reddit.
That’s not a bad thing, though, as this place has promise! Hopefully increasing numbers of Reddit users take the plunge as the site continues its death spiral.
It’s funny yeah I remember the redditor panic when all you guys showed up, who’d have thought we’d all end up being refugees together
