I am happy that Lemmy is receiving more attention, but I suspect that these numbers are misleading, some people have more than one account (not my case!) and how many of them were active in the last 30 days?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I can't answer how many different accounts one person has on avg, but I can tell you that about 23k accounts have been active in the last month.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Lemmy will have inflated user numbers, because you need multiple accounts due to defederation issues. It will probably settle down in the future, but for now unavoidably.

Glad to be apart of a growing community. After that bullshit Reddit pulled, I'm happy to be here πŸŽ‰πŸ₯³

Some thoughts

  • So nodes and instants are interchangeable terms
  • wth 140k? I thought we were around the 30k mark or something. Great!
  • Lemmy.ml is bigger than .world but world has a lot more active users? Interesting. I think .world will be known in the future as the redfuge instant.
  • Beehaw defederated? That kinda defeats the point of the fediverse, doesn’t it? I’d be a little mad if some moderator could make that call for me if I was registered to Beehaw

Past 150k user now!

I was a reddit user for a long time but I feel at home here. I'm happy with how easy every thing is to use. Good luck.

We are at 5k monthly active users. I find that stat more interesting.

Oh boy! There is such a huge amount of fediverse services... By the way, WTF is Misskey? And how is has 1M users?

Edit: typos

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Misskey looks a lot like a federated Twitter alternative, kinda like Mastodon. It seems to be Chinese, which might be why most of us have never heard of it and why it has so many users.
