As a result, our instance https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/ got 625 new user registrations (of which 536 where accepted) in the past 24 hours! And the registrations are not abating even now. We still get like 10 new ones per hour!
I suspect this is probably the largest advertisement, for lemmy specifically, since the main reddit blackouts 1.5 years ago.
Have your own instances also seen an influx of new users?
I’ve been dual-booting for about 2 weeks now, and I’ve been spending so much time in Fedora Silverblue because it’s just so nice. I mean, most of the shit I do is browser stuff, so I have no issues there. Most of the time I can get apps to work, but my only gripe is not being able to use NextDNS alongside Proton VPN like I did on my windows computer 😭. I just don’t know how to get it to work, and idk how to revert my DNS settings in terminal back to default instead of NextDNS.
But like everything else is fine, and I can still do my schoolwork.
