Thanks! I've been quite chuffed with the local user growth over the last month or so. Several of the recent applicants have mentioned finding us through reddit threads or search engines which is great because it means we're getting exposure as a very small instance to people who've never heard of Lemmy before. I'm not sure what more we could hope for.
I feel like you also have a bit of an advantage because people who don't really care about lemmy might not care about an address like lemmy.zip, but crazypeople.online gets attention, as would ani.social from anime enjoyers like myself.
