Not bad. I’d like to see it grow to at least 500K. Reddit got too big when they became mainstream about 5 years ago. Was a good size twelve years ago when I first joined.
Will be nice to see a wave of Apollo users come over now their app has stopped working.
Reddit was about 5m-10m monthly visitors back then. It's in the order of 600m now.
Damn I didn’t realize the growth was so massive. For me I started noticing the change in quality in parallel with when they they implemented the “K” for posts with more than 1000 upvotes, amazing that they were not thaaaat common back then.
Yeah it reminds me a lot of earlier Reddit. I joined around the same time. Was there for when Woody Harrelson only wanted to talk about Rampart in the infamous AMA.
I started when the guy was at the airport in the ama and people were asking and telling him to do dumb stuff.
I’m one of hopefully tens of thousands coming over from Apollo. I like it here so far! I’m testing the Memmy app for iOS.
Wefwef is a bettter Apollo clone, you.should give that a try
Same here! Except I’m trying mlem instead of Memmy. So far I like it here too
The real test is if it can support that user count. How much will it cost to run it, how much data would that consume? Someone has to pay for the servers and donations might not cut it.
I used Imgur to browse memes for a while. Started after they had just launched and witnessed them grow, then sell out. Ads increased every step of the way, to the point where there were ads while scrolling comments. I hope we’re not headed that way but feel as though it’s almost unavoidable.
