I browse on PC almost exclusively at old.lemmy.world.

Active users is up slightly, that’s a better metric for growth of the platform imo.

Rip FMHY

According to the Fediverse Observer, Posts and Comments are still growing day-by-day. It’s definitely slower growth, but as long as it stays healthy and active it will continue to have growth spurts as the enshittification of the rest of the web continues.

For the unenlightened.

I agree go guards

Please add lemmy.fmhy.ml to that list - it’s been down for over a day due to the .ml issues but have been looking for something like this to see if its back.

I dunno, back in the old PHP days (like the really shitty PHP) if you missed a semicolon on an included file, and that file was included in another file, and some dumbass included that in the middle of some other file, you would spend hours looking for it because the error showed it missing in the top-most file.

Some of the core devs, who also run lemmy.ml, are tankies. That being said, it’s an open standard and most of the popular instances are very against that mindset. The beauty and difficulty of an open, decentralized platform is that every instance can set their own ground rules and decide who to federate with.
