MODERATORS
OT but related to the discussion: is there a way to track if and how the fediverse is increasing?
I looked on Wikipedia and it said it's just about ~67000 users on Lemmy VS ~52 million users on Reddit.
I'm spending most of my time on my phone on Lemmy (and about 5 mins on Reddit) every day now, but it would be awesome to be slowly attracting more users from Reddit over time.
Sure, it's better to be fewer users if it does lead to more quality conversations (which is what I find so far), but the fediverse still needs to grow!
Edit: fixed grammar and clarity in the last sentence.
https://fedidb.org/ does a good job of monitoring. They also have a special lemmy+kbin section.
This is really nice, thank you!
