EDIT: we just crossed 30K 🥳
We are now at 28.5K users (see https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list). The top 10 instances also got a decent boost in user count. With the exception of beehaw.org which defederated, the Fediverse is thriving 🔥

Hats off to the creator of LW, it can’t be easy running a server this big. I do hope we don’t just dominate the fediverse though, would kinda defeat the purpose of it.
Kbin.social user chiming in here! I haven’t checked out Lemmy but I’m content with what kbin offers me so far.
I use both so far, but prefer Kbin (the UI/design is much better IMO). It’s especially nice that it’s compatible enough that we’re posting this on lemmy.world :-)
I love kbin, but I recently noticed it doesn’t seem to have a way of saving posts/comments? At least not one that I can find, it’s probably in there somewhere, I can’t imagine they just Wouldn’t Have that as a feature
If you ‘boost’ a comment/post it saves it to your profile under ‘boosts’. Though I just checked a post that I boosted and am getting a 503 error at the moment so might not be working right now?
I don’t even see a boost option on any of the lemmy instances I’m on (using through mobile web apps), I thought that was a kbin-only thing for Mastodon compatibility, but I might be wrong
Sorry yes you’re right, that’s a Kbin feature that’s not on Lemmy.
I have a little star for me on lemmy.world if I hit the 3 dot ‘more’ settings on comments and it shows automatically on posts for me to save posts/comments.
Could be an instance specific setting?
