I just started this account last night. I've been a Redditor from February 2013, so how will things be different on Lemmy for Redditors trying to adjust? Also, what are Lemmy users called? Lemmitors? (lemmy.world)

Reddit users are called Redditors. What are Lemmy users called? Lemmitors? Lemmings?

How well are the Lemmy fediverses growing? How many daily unique users do we have on this service? Will we overtake Reddit someday?

What differences should I get used to over here from what I was used to on Reddit? Thanks in advance.

It's like reddit before Conde Nast. It's pretty chill, "just post" is the only real advice I've got for you. Fingers crossed it never overtakes reddit, thankfully that doesn't seem to be a goal of many devs or admins. If it starts to, someone will just have to make the next lemmy :p
