Update on the growth of #mastodon in the last months. After the big wave of new accounts on Nov 17th, the growth seems steady for the last week at around 50k new accounts/users per day. Only in the last couple of weeks, 1M new accounts were added. At this rhythm, #mastodon will get 1.5M accounts/users per month.

@estebanmoro I realize this may be very tough due to decentralization, but is there any kind of rough daily/weekly use estimate to know how many are using the accounts as opposed to preparing in case of future need?

@foobarsoft @estebanmoro I probably am doing something wrong. I am old. But there doesn’t seem to be all that much interaction. Not many new posts a day. I understand quantity isn’t necessarily quality but it is hard to find a group of like minded people here. Liberal, news junkies, climate protectors, anti book banning, pro Roe. Do we all have not much to say? How about today’s convictions on seditious conspiracy?

@browncarol @foobarsoft @estebanmoro the trick is to follow hashtags instead of just people. For example I follow ones like #birds #ADHD #histodons which produces more than enough content in my feed.

@cytokine_storm @browncarol @foobarsoft @estebanmoro Also, how does one follow a hashtag?

@Lee_in_Iowa @browncarol @foobarsoft @estebanmoro click on the hashtag and then you click on the little person with a plus sign to follow :)

Histodons are history nerds on Mastodon.
