Since my last post yesterday, lemmy.world has added over 3000 new users, bringing the total user count to 22000 today (source: https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list). It firmly holds the position of the second-largest lemmy instance, surpassing beehaw.org by a significant margin of 10000 users.
In other news, beehaw has defederated from lemmy.world a few hours ago. How does the third largest instance only have 4 mods for its 12000 users?!
So much going on!
Is beehaw heavily moderated or something?
I mean they just defederated from two of the biggest instances (including lemmy.world) and have the largest list of blocked instances of any instance
