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?

Its actually a lot if they actively post and comment, or even if they actively upvote, we dont get that many upvotes in general for the top posts, even 100 would be a huge boost

I'm sorry but it's just not enough. There are still way too many people on reddit.

We need that number to be in the millions, so that niche communities form and I can finally stop going to reddit for that content. I want to be done with that website sooo badly.
