@atomicpoet Where can I find the most recent data on signups/usage of Mastodon since last fall? I keep seeing references to "slumps" in numbers but I thought it was still growing overall. @fediversenews

@dangillmor @atomicpoet @fediversenews I follow @mastodonusercount. It’s a bot and don’t know if it’s what you are looking for….but I find it interesting.

@dangillmor I use a variety of sources: @mastodonusercount, fediverse.observer, the-federation.info, and beta.fedidb.org

Short answer: there's no slump.

Sign-ups continue to increase -- albeit, not at the same rate as in November -- November was a spike.

While MAUs decreased since November, it's increased again this month (according to @Gargron).

But what's more interesting is that HYAUs is at a peak.

And we're very close to breaking 1 billion posts per month!

See chart.

@dangillmor But this chart for Misskey is even more interesting to me. This is
Average Misskey Total Users by Month.

The growth is absurd -- and it has been validated by multiple sources.

Misskey is part of the Fediverse, and it talks to Mastodon.
