Yeah this is looking to be a really good growth period. Pixelfed went from 15K in late December to a peak of 300K plus, and if it levels out at 150K that's decent. I don't think you want to suddenly grow too fast on a fediverse platform with a single part-time developer who's also (singlehandedly?) running the main instance.
One thing I wonder is: how many of those people were already active on other fediverse platforms...
I doubt many are from other fediverse platforms. Pixelfed has been well known for a while. There are a lot of sharp edges running a Pixelfed server. He's stretched himself thin with all these projects. They need more love for sure.
