Fediverse seems like its stabilizing: https://fediverse.observer/dailystats&days=1000
(and these are the servers that allow the crawler from the observer, so its highly likely the numbers are much larger).
We are seeing:
- A small decrease in users on Lemmy: https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/dailystats&days=365
- And a small increase on Piefed: https://piefed.fediverse.observer/dailystats&days=365
- Peertube is up in total users and stabilizing in active users: https://peertube.fediverse.observer/dailystats&days=365
- Mastodon is all over the place: https://mastodon.fediverse.observer/dailystats&days=365
Overall pretty good! Keeping the momentum going. Thanks everyone, whichever platform/instance you hail from!
not loving the inorganic appearance in some of those rises and climbs. the sudden ones or the curved ones.
The first big jump lines up with the Reddit API Controversy. The June 2025 rise and fall is users migrating from lemm.ee, and then their previous accounts becoming inactive. I imagine the other irregularities are from similar events
Thank you for correcting a lazy, ignorant hot-take.
