Edit: Hmm, this graph doesn't seem to match up to the fediverse observer data, it's quite a bit lower and I'm not immediately clear why. (This is graphed off the lemmy.ca DB as federated users from piefed.ca)
Here's the same graph for piefed.social:
Is it possible to get that for total daily users?
As in active users each day? I don't have that query written but if I remember I'll look in the next couple days
Yea these graphs won't really work for making a good reddit post.
If and when I can find one I'll make a post, which should hopefully add a few hundred more users here
Assuming I ran the queries correctly
Past 8 days:
Past 14 days:

Amazing thanks, only seeing this now. I've already made a post and it seems to be blowing up.
You're not wrong. Today's data is from 12:20, all other days are from around 14 central European time.
mau <- c(109, 114, 114, 114, 120, 123, 370, 502, 569, 588, 602, 611, 613, 969)
Date <- as.Date(as.Date("2026-01-24"):as.Date("2026-02-06"))
plot(Date, mau, type="l", ylab="Monthly active users", lwd="2", main="Monthly active users of piefed.ca",
col="#D80621", xaxs="i", yaxs="i", ylim=c(0,1000))
grid()
Beautiful
Here's the number of monthly active users, which might look more impressive to people who obsess over the Y axis:
It's not super pretty as I just threw it together and really should be doing other things. But it's colour matching the Canadian flag, which I hope is appreciated. :)
I guess a key takeaway is that the number of active users at Piefed.ca multiplied by more than five since late January.

The middle one at https://piefed.fediverse.observer/piefed.ca should work nicely:-)
I wish it was weekly or daily, it doesn't really pop and a good image is so important.
I didn't think it would work on reddit 🤔 but could try
Oh I thought it was daily but you are right it's monthly (it's super hard to see it on my phone screen). One of the buttons on the bottom, for Additional Checks Data, has data provided multiple times per day, if someone wants to make a chart from the raw numbers.
