From the article:

"Some users of Reddit have moved to Reddit alternatives already, or are testing them at the very least. It remains to be seen if one of them is going to attract enough users to turn it into a real competitor. Lemmy seems to be one of the favorites for now."

I love seeing people around the internet mentioning Lemmy and other fediverse spaces. It's so validating and exciting 🙂

I really like it too, glad we're being noticed, but I also feel a little bad for admins of large instances getting swept with new users.

The admins seem to be crushing it so far. Go admins! You can do it! 🦸🏽‍♀️
