Impressive, I guess, but how many of those 2 million posts have a single comment? If 90% of these are just bots reposting things from Reddit with no further engagement…

The content will bring in users. I try to comment on interesting topics to help drive engagement.

This is my thoughts as well. I’ve noticed that once one or two people express interest in a post, it tends to get much more traffic

Hey! Some of those posts with no comments are me posting pictures of cute bugs that I took! I'm not a bot, I'm just not very interesting.

How about the current situation? These numbers are soon a year old!

[–] melroy@kbin.melroy.org 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

It seems that. 1) Cumulative graph is removed, because cumulative doesn't make sense. There is an average graph though. Average Lemmy Posts by Day... 2) In just a single day the numbers of this new average graph exploded.. that can't be right.. 3) What about all the spam posts!??

And.. for the Mbin users out there. Here is the same average posts by day, but on the Mbin platform.

Any reason to come back to this 5 months old post? Genuinely asking if something changed on that topic 😄

[–] melroy@kbin.melroy.org 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The thread itself is actually already 1 year old. Well, look at the screens above. Somebody asked for a follow-up, so I gave a follow-up of both the average posts by day for Lemmy as well as Mbin... The trend is still up.

Indeed, but they asked 5 months ago, which is why I was curious about your comment now

[–] melroy@kbin.melroy.org 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I didn't saw it earlier.. :P

[–] Blaze@feddit.org 2 points 2 months ago

No worries 😄

Great growth so far. How does this compare to Reddit?

[–] Apollo_Katelo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Great scot! 1.21 Gigawatts of active users!

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

And a hearty F.U. to reddit

[–] Leviathan@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

All I'm missing is the more niche communities to grow. It's good to see lots of memes and engagement but a man needs more.
