Okay, it’s actually 18955 at the time of this post. I’m looking at https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list and lemmy.world has already passed beehaw.org by a large margin for second place.
Can’t wait for this place to start filling out!

There aren’t any karma bots yet. No one is making useless comments like “this.” The conversations are civil. I’m loving this community!
