The user count at the moment of this post stands at 33279 and continues to grow!
To take the #1 spot from lemmy.ml (36185 users and no longer growing), lemmy.world just needs about 3000 new users. Given the current growth rate, that should only be another day or two.
We’re building something here! Kudos to lemmy.world admin @ruud@lemmy.world for all of his hard work keeping this site running smoothly.

Yep, we should have a stable, general-purpose landing place (like lemmy.world is shaping up to be) for new users before they start spreading out.
