@Gargron Without the context, suddenly reading 'Yesterday's stats: 3,007 alive 'was the most ominous thing on my timeline lmao :artghost:

@Gargron I always wonder about the "alive" servers :blobcatgiggle:​

Are those the "known" ones in the network? I mean there are always a few that aren't connected still right? Plus the ones that have limited fed perhaps?

@Gargron sorry wanted to use that emoji for a while now (:

Eugen Rochko

If you see larger numbers cited it's possible they include the whole fediverse, but accuracy tends to be lower in my experience

Eugen Rochko

For example the-federation.info includes Diaspora* and Matrix numbers despite them being separate networks entirely

stux⚡

@Gargron If I may ask, what info source do you use for the Masto network?

stux⚡

@Gargron Oh that's awesome! Is that public code by any chance? :blobcatgiggle:​😇 No worries if not!

@Gargron

I am assuming the opposite but: does your crawler also include other Activitypub based services like: peertube, pleroma, misskey, plume, etc ?

@Gargron the-fedeation.info site, which I have not seen, is obviously running on fumes. @dansup has another site going doing some of this work. There is also this for example: fediverse.party/en/mastodon/ As well, I used to use another site for Fediverse stats that was the best in my opinion. I cannot quite locate the URL right now but many months ago I had looked and it was partially down. My point is - obviously the principle of ActivityPub and the Fediverse is not to centralize and yet good stats remain key.

@Gargron What's the thin line between being considered an active mastodon user and a kind of salt statue one? 1 interaction/month? 1 login/month?

Eugen Rochko

@ranx Yes, it just means logged in in the last 30 days

@Gargron With the Cheeto Jesus apparently set to be let back onto The Bird Site, I wonder how things will transpire with 2 "more money than brains" types there.

@Gargron It looks like your patreon contributions have cone up as well. Hopefully it is enough to help cover your current costs.

@Gargron Can we access that history somewhere? I'd like to chart the growth of Mastodon, and ideally of the fediverse overall.

@Gargron I'm curious about how many were there 2 months ago, do you know a ballpark?

@Gargron just wondering, what is classed as active? I don't post much but check the app regularly.

@Gargron das wird noch richtig bunt hier 🙌🏼 neu dabei und sehr gespannt.
