Same here. Created a account out of curiosity when the API changes got announced. The last two weeks showed insane growth and completely convinced me that Lemmy (and Kbin) will succeed. Probably not as big as reddit but big enough to be alternative.
-
I made mine the day some mods got locked out of there accounts...and posted about it with a link here lol. Seemed like nothing was getting better "by the end of the month"

-
I've been here for over a year. Thankful to finally see a lot more content.
-
Same here!! I guess we're Lemmy veterans (Lemerans?)
-
Lumerians
-
-
Oh, there are such people 😁
-
-
5 weeks!

Personally I think lemmy.world was key in driving momentum. After realizing a couple days before the protests started that reddit was not going to change, I started looking for real alternatives. When I found lemmy, I thought I had to join the biggest instance to get a shot at seeing enough content, not understanding how the fediverse worked yet. I imagine it was the same for a lot of people. And the bigger userbase lemmy.world got, the more appealing it was for reddit refugees. Once we got here we now know we can branch out to other instances if needed, but lemmy.world's awesome handling of the user influx absolutely looked appealing to people looking to make the jump, and we shouldn't discount that. Awesome work to @ruud and all the admins he has brought on the team. We appreciate you all.

No, I was late to the party...... Only 26 days, but it feels like a month!
-
Me too, Lemmy birthday twins!
-
-
I’ve been here for a week and I absolutely love it. Reminds me of Reddit when I joined in 2013.
-
Hell yeah it does! My engagement is off the hook compared to that other site. I actually enjoy “All” now, finding new communities, and engaging with friendly people.
Just like when I (we?) left Digg for reddit.

I first joined June 18th, so 18 days ago. Then I got curious enough with self-hosting an instance and now I’m at 10 days with my new cake day.
I tried to detox and avoid Reddit during the protest period. After finding out about how all the subreddits were being forced open, I decided to eject from that ecosystem altogether.
-
Am I the only one who is worried about that candle getting tipped over and lighting the couch on fire?
-
I came here after the reddit protest blackout...and never went back.
-
I came here even before the blackout.
u/spez's "AMA" was the final nail in the coffin for me.
-
Amen. Haven't looked back.
-
-
-
Almost 2 years here
-
Nah, I have an account on beehaw since before LW existed, but when beehaw defederated from LW I opened an account here, so 3 weeks for me here :)
-
Actually I had one on lemmy.ml before too, but that was more like looking around.
-
-
Almost!
-
Same
-
-
Ooh, we have a veteran here. ;)
Happy 30 day anniversary.
Personally I only lurked at first, checking out what it was all about before creating an account.
-
My first Lemmy account on ML is over 3 years old.
-
Truly ancient!
-
A Forerunner
-
I've heard stories of your kind, but I thought you'd all passed into legend.
-
-
Gonna be a lot of cake days next June
-
Indeed!
-
-
raises hand
Thoroughly enjoying it.
-
Technically I've been on lemmy for 3 years, but that's with my old lemmy.ml account, this one is new and fresh :p
-
I've been here for a month now. Really like it. No corps to make money from our conversations!
-
Originally joined 1 month ago on beehaw . Recently joined reddthat because beehaw has blacklisted lemmy.world which got the most amount of users and communities .
-
Only two weeks but please let me stay.....please. In all seriousness it's kind of fun watching this place develop. Kind of an old internet vibe.
-
Four years on my other account 🎉
-
Show us

It's in my bio

-
Two weeks today, loving it here so far ♡
-
Not quite, but coming up on it.
-
Over 2 years with an account on lemmy.ml but the instance is overloaded.
-
A little over a month for me
-
Meeee! waves
-
Do you spray tea everywhere when waving? :p
-
Some say that's why I never go out in public.
(but really it's because of all the wasps)

-
Such a sad cat 🥹
-
3.5 weeks here!
-
Been switching accounts every time I learn something new about self hosting, but I've been here about a month as well!
Haven't checked reddit in 2 weeks and I'm not looking back. This place is awesome! Self hosting is awesome!
-
Happy Month Anniversary!
-
I’m just about to reach a month too. Joined as soon as I heard Reddit was killing Apollo, the main way I used Reddit.
-
Same. Now I’m using the wefwef.app interface and it’s quite good. Only problem is that my keyboard doesn’t work for some reason. Will try to „reinstall” the web-app.
-
-
June 17th, almost 3 weeks !
-
23 days so not quite
-
According to my profile, I 've been here 23 days.
-
I think my kbin.social account is a month old, didn't make my lemmy.world account until Boost for Lemmy was announced though.
-
I think I'm kinda close to a whole month
-
I've been registered for ten days, but I was lurking for roughly three weeks before that. Either way, it's a good enough reason that I'll crack a beer. Of course, I was gonna do that anyway… :D
-
Around 3 weeks here 👍
-
Fortnight for me
-
-
Got here on the 12th, 6 more days!
-
I'd joined just minutes ago XD
-
Hello there! :3

-
Same. Getting the hang of it, but all the different instances are a little confusing.
-
-
waves hand in air Me too!!!
-
Just checked and my account is apparently already a month old on midwest.social
-
Almost there for a one month cake. Still a ways to go.
-
Lemmy months feel like 2 months :D
-
No, but I'm only 10 days away.
-
You can't tell from this account but I made eric5949@beehaw on June 7th.
-
I been here since the blackout on June 12th and haven’t looked back!

I'm 25 days in.
-
Same here.

On my current instance since Jun 4, I can't even remember if I had joined a different one before that or not. Beginning of June at least. Basically abandoned R* at that point.
