I don’t know any Lemmy users IRL. I have nudged my friends towards it. My partner has asked me to post things a few times. Just curious.
Edit: running total including the commenter: 32.5 people
Just my husband, but not sure he counts as he doesn’t have an account. I did meet one of my closest friends on Reddit though.
Big fat goose egg 0. A lot of people I talk to don’t even know what Reddit is, really.
I’ve never met anyone in person who’s even heard of Lemmy. Well, at least whenever it’s brought up 😅
Trick question. I’m the only real user on the internet. Nice try.
Any time I’ve brought it up everybody glazes over the first time I say the words “instance” or “federated.” I’ve tried the email analogy, but they lose interest immediately.
Call them “communities”, not “instances”, that might work better
