Hi there, I’m new here. We were told to explore Lemmy for a class project on online communities. Is this a good place to start asking questions?

Just so you have an understanding of the lack of interaction with this question, Lemmy has less than 50,000 monthly active users.

The Fediverse as a whole is also small compared to the top social media sites. It's about a million active users per month.

This site helps break down the stats.

Fridays and Saturdays usually see more engagment. You can also try these communites.
