Whatever the number, I've definitely noticed in the past few days that there are getting to be enough people having conversations and posting content for this place to feel like a legit community instead of a ghost town. I'm really glad to see more people joining and taking part.

Agreed. It's really nice to see top posts having a lot of thoughtful engagement. Hopefully we'll have enough to start seeing people branching out to smaller niche communities too.

The small niche communities are pretty much dead, sadly. But there for sure is hope!

For example, your comment is the first one I have seen that has over 30 upvotes since I came on board a week back.

It's been amazing to feel like we're part of something that's growing so fast. I'll miss Reddit but I expect Lemmy will fill in the role sooner rather than later.
