Good to see, but as with all posts like this, it’s important to note that the really important number is “Active Users” That number has gone up significantly as well, just not as fast as number of accounts.
It took me months to actually start using Lemmy and Mastodon. I would consider myself a tech savvy person and it still took a while getting used too. I think there need to be better tutorials linked on the sign-up pages that help people understand the basic concepts. That would help drive true user acquisition.

Are any of these accounts bots?
Or maybe how many of these accounts are bots?
Are they all bots?
Yes unfortunately but lemmy is still growing
I’m going to link my comment because I don’t want to rewrite it for everyone I reply to where it is relevant

Yeah this is a good point.

Subscribe pending is a bug, you are subscribed, it just says pending for some reason. I am still pending on a community that I moderate.

If two instances are federated you can access communities on both from either instance.
