I hadn't even heard of Lemmy until a few days ago. Maybe it'll ride the momentum. End of the month there will probably be another influx, considering the reddit changes.

Let's hope so! Some of the communities are a bit empty still. Hopefully it'll change. :)

I heard of Tildes first. Tried it, didn't get it, didn't like the UI and just gave up on it. Saw someone mention Lemmy in a Reddit thread about the blackouts. Googled it, got confused, went to join, got really confused, made accounts on 3 different instances due to aforementioned confusion, started scrolling, haven't stopped in over a week. I like it here

I was turned off of Tildes because of the fact that (at least when I tried it) they hadn't implemented automated password changing, you had to message an actual person.
