This instance gives a clue maybe?

https://fedidb.org/network/instance/lemmy.wiuf.net

It looks like it's only a day old and it has 11k users. There isn't any content on it either. There are a few instances like that, you can see them here: https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy. They all have low MAU, 10k or so users, and low Status Count.

Quite a few are showing about 10k new users in the past day or so. Probably they're small instances without bot protection or instances made to support bots.

A lot of new people posting content. Probably a good number of bots as well.

Hmm, it seems odd that the number of total user's has increased so much without the number of active user's increasing as well. Unless people are having trouble logging in?

My brother has trouble logging in consistently. It's always a spinning circle

I had the same issue getting registered. Had to fuck with it throughout the day before it finally went through. Makes me smile though. Lemmy is growing so fast it's struggling to keep up

gaining critical mass?

I use RIF exclusively on mobile. I never use reddit from my computer. The interface isn't all that different from RIF when on mobile, so I'm giving it a shot. Lots of the other places listed as "reddit alternatives" were mostly just discussion and not community focused and link sharing sites. I like it so far. (my first post!)

And so it begins
