Not necessarily a bad thing. A lot of new users to the fediverse.
I thought the cropping was just because the op was making a 69 joke
For some reason the post cut off part of the full image.

@michael thanks! the image itself gave me 0 idea what you where talking about.
They are both cut off.
Hmmm, fedidb says “total users: +93K since last month”, “total monthly active users: +68K since last month”. That’s not that much, but not too shabby either.
Looks like the growth is more attributed to pixelfed
Pixelfed is having its moment in the spotlight - on the Apple app store it’s currently getting more downloads than Facebook, Bluesky or Instagram.
Of course, it’s helped along by the fact that people don’t have it installed already. But still fun to se the Fediverse represented in the list of popular apps. I think similar things are happening on Android in many countries.
Wow, that’s great. Hopefully the servers can stand the load!
Well I’ve been saying for a while that the fediverse needs to move on from Mastodon in order to grow, so this is a good sign. Though this is total users, not active users AFAICT.
Good, more software diversity is always good. We shouldn’t all just use a single software.
I know this is pointing at percentages, but those numbers are still way off from whatever else I was just looking at earlier today. Like they had lemmy #2, Pixelfed #3 and loops, whatever the hell that is, at like #5. Here on the best Fedi platform, friendica, they said there were just over 2,000 active users, making loops already at 6 times larger than us. I still think we need to get ready because someday the facebook migration will come and boy howdy.
loops, whatever the hell that is
FediverseTok, which I expect to get a lot more popular in the US pretty soon.
Are Lemmy communities easy to browse from Friendica?
