There used to be the Alexa ranking for websites but it seems to no exist anymore. Elsewhere I only could find for lemmy.world ranking (something like 55000, yay!) but not the actual userbase, and nothing about any other instance (let alone the entire Fediverse).
its mostly propaganda accounts trying to make leftists look stupid
Lucky for you, I’ve been keeping track.
There’s exactly 56 of us.
Did ya get me? I’m pretty quiet.
Can we count up to verify?
1
I think 50k MAU has been bandied about.
So pretty much stagnant as of now?
I remember this kind of sentiment in reddit back in the day before it went mainstream lol
I wouldn’t say that, considering we (feddit.org) are currently experiencing a large growth from reddit users and others going away from US based platforms.
I mean you say it’s stagnant and that may be technically true, but I see plenty of posts per day without repeats. I like where we’re at.
No, just slow and steady
FediDB has listed the overall Lemmy monthly active users at about 45k for a while now. It’s anyone’s guess how many actual humans that represents, since the number includes bots and alt accounts.
That number only includes accounts that post, comment, or vote. I would love to know how many silent lurkers are out there.
I’ll admit to mostly checking into Bluesky for a month in January. The user count is much higher but the quality-post count lower … unless you’re into phographs of cats and mushrooms, product-promoters, and political opinions. Forget any quality posts - a 300-character limit (but unlimited photo sizes) and 60-second audio/video limit encourage superficial sheepiality.
Not a desert, but next to one, and the water prices are higher. Probably 1000 lurkers for every liker, let alone comments … unless you’re an ‘name’ into self-promotion. Some names deliver inside info you’ll not see here.
Lemme delivers as much quality as bsky does. But you have to scroll thru more crap there.
I’m not even a real person. Just a meat popcicle trained by smart monkeys from the future of the past.
