@mastodonusercount Mastodon registrations running at ten thousand registrations per hour, or three registrations per second. Been doing that for the last twelve hours.

The surge started at 5pm PST, the same time that Musk’s hardcore deadline ended and many twitter employees quit.

@terry @mastodonusercount The above post about Mastodon growth (click through and scroll up) is absolutely wild. If even some of those new people stay, things are about to get pretty wild ‘round these parts.

(Also, in a more meta sense, trying out the boosting-own-comment workaround to the lack of a non-snarky quotation option. Let’s see how it works!)

This is just the beginning. The key is for you to provide a safe and reliable platform with this vastly increased volume. It is a challenge and an incredible opportunity. Go to it!
