Does lemmy.world really have 19000 users already?

Okay, it's actually 18955 at the time of this post. I'm looking at https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list and lemmy.world has already passed beehaw.org by a large margin for second place.

Can't wait for this place to start filling out!

There aren't any karma bots yet. No one is making useless comments like "this." The conversations are civil. I'm loving this community!

I think the federated nature of the platform may help to reinforce those positive attributes. Unmoderated instances with low quality content are at risk of being defederated, and as evident by the mod log, the mods do enforce rules on inflammatory and low quality content.

Does lemmy.world have any unfederated instances? I was preferring the freedom of chosing to block communities myself but I started running into some very toxic posts that make me feel like I took a wrong turn and I'm gonna get stabbed in a dark alley lol! I'd rather stick to the friendly, positive and useful posts. I would rather avoid that aspect of Reddit here.
