This is my first comment, just joined during the weekend. It took about half a day to get used to the lower amount of stuff and the slower pace here. And I really like it! The quality of discourse here seems so much higher and with the lower amount of posts I find that I can take my time and not get overwhelmed. Should have joined years ago :-)

Years ago, it was just a safe haven for half a dozen communists.

2 years ago it was already pretty well spread out IMO, that was just before the API fiasco. Now add some years before that and I'd say yeah, a much smaller community.

But even a couple years ago Lemmy was beginning to thrive.
