It seems the fediverse is continuing and growing again. Line go up is probably good!

Total users are huge now.

There are many websites out there that pull data from the fediverse. So take that with a grain of salt. But anecdotally I am seeing a small rise in people using the various platforms as each get more mature and servers somewhat stabilize.

      There is just so much you can do as a human even with multiple accounts. So unless you’re daily driving 50 accounts somehow and most others got nothing better to do as well, I still count that as a positive trend.

        Im not downplaying the growth. Just putting out there that it is easy to think active users means different people, which is not true.

            Becauase mastodon works poorly for lemmy, lemmy works bad for mastodon, loops works bad for lemmy and mastodon. Actually, I have four accounts because I wanted an account on mastodon exclusively for images.

      Yeah, I’m new (also driven from Reddit after the recent changes) and within like a week I signed up for three different servers, and I’ll probably sign up for more if I can figure out how to navigate servers well enough to find what I’m looking for.

      It’s actually rather nice to have separate accounts for different use cases and not mix, say, a memery and general discussion account with an art account.

      True, same for me. But I have been for quite a while and I’m not creating new ones. I’m guessing legit users don’t need many accounts, so I’d be more concerned about botting.
