As a result, our instance https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/ got 625 new user registrations (of which 536 where accepted) in the past 24 hours! And the registrations are not abating even now. We still get like 10 new ones per hour!
I suspect this is probably the largest advertisement, for lemmy specifically, since the main reddit blackouts 1.5 years ago.
Have your own instances also seen an influx of new users?
On Voyager, one is a mailto link hehe.
Makes sense as the app has no way to know if it’s an email address or not
On Connect it’s a lemmy.world user called batman. (The first link works properly.)
