Good hints, but these events likely were not very relevant.
While Lemmy gained almost 200,000 new users in the last two days, the active users increased by less than 3,000, just about the same as pretty much every two-day period recently. So pretty much all of those new users are inactive. That’s not hordes of Redditors coming over and exploring Lemmy, that’s hordes of bot and sleeper accounts being created.
I think most are still figuring out how this all works. I barely did anything the first couple days too. Its a bit confusing at first and takes some time for people to find their place.
I found out today that Sync for Reddit developer, LJ, is making an app for Lemmy, so I made an account here. (I’ve been on Kbin since the strike started.)
