Is there any integration with Lemmy? Cross promotion would be awesome, and something big tech can’t actually do.
I am but a humble end user using the web interface, but I do know mastodon comments can somehow show up on Lemmy.

If you look at monthly active users instead of total users, Pixelfed is a strong 2nd place.
What are you guys posting pictures of over on pixelfed? What's goin' on over there that's so popular? Is it more politics, and social issues? Or is it cats?
There's a sudden influx of users from instagram and tiktok and whatnot because of the ban, zuckerberg fellating Trump, and all of that stuff going on. So the answer to "What's getting posted?" is "everything"
Interesting because i just joined 1 day ago so my feed only has 5 default following, but discover only has about 5 other peoples' work repeated through the discover tab. It seems difficult to discover new people which could be a problem in retaining normal people after the ibflux, like what happened to lemmy

Crazy enough. People are posting what they were posting on instagram.

ikr lemmy has a little over 40k active users. If you look at the first data point just as the slope starts to rise, that's where lemmy is by comparison:
Total users is pretty meaningless bc it includes things like users who left and will never return, and bot accounts.
Oh you mean people don't like being shouted and cursed at for having a moderate opinion.
you're comparing apples to oranges. Lemmy is for discussions pixelfed is for posting photos.
I mean people like mastodon and it’s full of the same takes. But on mastodon if you post a pro capitalist post to your timeline, people just ignore. Unlike on Lemmy where you have to post it on a post that’s likely to garner a response
I'm just worried a lack of content discovery, (foss) algorithms, other features and consistent development will have an adverse effect on this new growth. I'm glad that Dan finally got the apps on the stores at a critical moment though or we wouldn't even be here.
