It would be an interesting shot across the bow to corporate controlled social media to show opensource, open access social medias growth. I’m sure its in an exponential phase. It also would seem important to the community to know. Is there a way to query across the fediverse to look at user numbers?

    Lemmy and the Fediverse. Select ‘Active last month’ for best estimation of actual activity. E.g., this is the current burst in Lemmy due to the Reddit exodus:

    It’s multiplied by 4 or 5 and still increasing.

        Hopefully. It largely depends on how fast instances are able to scale up their infrastructure. There’s three weeks before June 30th, so hopefully there’s time to prepare for as many people’s arrival as possible.
