Top-level
@mike @spreadmastodon@venera.social @fediversereport Hi @mike - would definitely be up for Canadian.social to be in a future round robin. The initial set of 60K registered users was just a stab objective metrics for high capacity servers. Very up for suggestions to move that down to numbers that would hit solid but mid-level serves as well. And welcome exactly this feedback. 13 comments
@jdp23 @mike @brian @spreadmastodon@venera.social @fediversereport Taking notes on all this, thanks! Definitely will update the MAU and registered users numbers, but want to think more about what still ensures high capacity in an objective way. Up for suggestions to those numbers. @spreadmastodon@mastodon.social @jdp23 @mike @spreadmastodon@venera.social @fediversereport “what still ensures high capacity in an objective way. Up for suggestions to those numbers.” I’m probably just dense, but I’m not grocking why there needs to be an arbitrary number of users to define high capacity. There are sites that report metrics on the uptime of instances, which seems to be a better measure than number of users. @spreadmastodon@mastodon.social @jdp23 @mike @spreadmastodon@venera.social @fediversereport Saying it another way: I think the ultimate goal is to get a new user attached to the right instance. If they don’t know or care, then fine, go to .social. But if they have specific niche interests, then helping to guide them towards options is in support of “getting them attached to the right instance.” tl;dr - best fit > server size  @spreadmastodon@mastodon.social @spreadmastodon@venera.social @fediversereport A few suggestions: Sports should be follow category. There is a super active sports community on Mastodon. Hockey is missing from your sports hashtag topics. This is an unforgivable sin. #HNOM I picked some follow categories went to the next step and automatically followed a a bunch of people. Maybe an intermediary step asking if you want to follow these people? Great first steps! @mike @spreadmastodon@venera.social @fediversereport Thank you! Marking down all these notes! @mike @spreadmastodon@venera.social @fediversereport Which top accounts would you recommend for sports? Our goal here was: 1. not bots or no Twitter cross-posting accounts with no human involved 2. Actively and regularly posting on topic @spreadmastodon@mastodon.social @spreadmastodon@venera.social @fediversereport I'm primarily focused on hockey, look at the #HNOM hashtag and you should find a lot of users there. Also @TheHockeyWriters is a non bot account. @spreadmastodon@mastodon.social @spreadmastodon@venera.social @fediversereport 1) These are the NHL hashtags used on Masto: @spreadmastodon@mastodon.social @spreadmastodon@venera.social @fediversereport 2) @spreadmastodon@mastodon.social @spreadmastodon@venera.social @fediversereport also if you're wondering what #HNOM stands for: |

@spreadmastodon@mastodon.social @spreadmastodon@venera.social @fediversereport Sorry got my back up as I don't think a lot of really good instances would ever hit those numbers. I apreciate the transparency and the effort.
