EDIT: we just crossed 30K 🥳


We are now at 28.5K users (see https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list). The top 10 instances also got a decent boost in user count. With the exception of beehaw.org which defederated, the Fediverse is thriving 🔥

    Same. I don’t mind a few words to try and convince someone I’m not a bot but it should still be a semiautomatic system (e.g. auto-approve after a few hours if you don’t get explicitly denied). I think approvals simply got backed up because 1 or 2 ppl were approving these and it suddenly turned into thousands of applications per hour.
