Gregory's ServerJust now, the #Fediverse (#ActivityPub) has surpassed 8 million users! It just took 13 days from 7 to 8m users!
All ActivityPub-connected #SocialMedia are at 8,012,580 users (5.2m active six months, 3.4m monthly active). Thanks to #Mastodon 7.0m users, #PeerTube 388k, #Pixelfed 130k , #Pleroma 127k, #WriteFreely 65k #Lemmy 40k, #Wordpress 35k, #Plume 28k, #Friendica 20k, #Mobilizon 14k, #bookwyrm 14k and many more.
@gerald_leppert Is there an indication (e.g. duplicate user names or profile information) how many #PeerTube, #bookwyrm or #PixelFed accounts are "duplicate" accounts (twinned with a more text-based account)?
And all it took was having a billionaire become a terrible example
@gerald_leppert Just wait. A significant portion of those newcomers will go dormant and will return to Twitter. Not all, but a lot.
