@pollak The numbers Eugen gave were number of active users. There were 6M _total_ users before October, but only around 300k active. (Since that article was written, the number has fallen from 2.5M to 1.7M.) https://mastodont.cat/@fediverse/109551351263618907

@edoggthered Erik! What are you doing over here! I thought you might be too rural to figure out a new platform.

@pollak Oh I've had an account here but don't check it too often. I find it doesn't make me angry enough to retain my interest. I think I may have a problem.

@pollak It's now around 8 million, so it's quite a bit bigger than even then...

@pollak @Dahlialith and it was done successfully without centralized infrastructure. And that is the under-reported story, IMHO.

@sfoguj

There are over 8 million accounts now. (All instances or servers). This account tracks them on an hourly basis.
