Looking at Fedidb.org the Fediverse Network Statistics, I’m seeing about 98,000 Active users as of the 27th. That’s at least 50k new users this month. Welcome to Lemmy, fellow migrants!

    Man what is the deal with us Germans and this place? Feels like I’m invading by accident. Well, old habits…

      Because feddit.de is a main Lemmy instance and there are some popular instances over there. I’d love to block feddit.de out right but they have the main starwarsmemes and some other good practical magazines, so I’m stuck unsubbing from them on a one-by-one basis.

        Thanks for letting me know. Makes me shed a tear from pride knowing our practicability prevents you from disassociating with the German part of the fediverse.

        Just learn German and get more memes! Then live in Germany for a bit and get the niche memes.

          Work a small job, get german citizenship, marry a german partner, have a german family, die in a german grave, and forget why you did it all.
