A 15% increase in the last two weeks, wow. Half-year view
Thank you [email protected] and [email protected]
It is indeed a nice bump. Although we've been here before, I guess reaching a peak of almost 56k MAU last March, before it fell down to 43k at the end of last year.
The trick will be to see if people stay... vs. going back to Reddit, or perhaps Bluesky. PieFed gives me strong hopes for that. Lemmy offers smaller hopes and more for medium-term as they start to catch up with even half of those new features in 1.0 on their roadmap (edit: by which time PieFed will have far eclipsed its feature set, plus offering far less "Reddit 2.0", authoritarian style moderation in favor of democratization where the users themselves control their personal experiences using the same community structure; although the real test will be how well PieFed handles scaling to more users), but it too is still loads better than enshittified platforms.
Bluesky
Different format
I mean, I get it, I do - it's apples to oranges, and yet when you go to the store to buy a friut snack... might you not need to choose between them sometimes?
And Bluesky/Mastodon v. Lemmy/Mbin/PieFed/Reddit, along with Facebook/Friendica, are all "social media"...
So that's all I meant there, but I suppose you are right that it's too niche to really have to worry about:-).
Let's go 🔥
LFG
Amidoingitright?:
One active user monthly = one account posting, commenting, or voting at least once in a month?
Or are lurkers included?
How come the number of daily users is higher?
One active user monthly = one account posting, commenting, or voting at least once in a month?
Correct
Daily users
Those are registered users, regardless of activity
I see. Thanks!
Neat
The monthly active user number on join-lemmy.org cracked past 57k hopefully the 3 developers behind the project will be paid full salaries eventually!
How many of those are bots not registered as bots?
