Is this counting Piefed?

No. It says lemmy only so no piefed or mbin

Last I checked, Piefed had only a fraction of the users Lemmy had.

I have an account in a Piefed instance and it’s awesome (especially if they add image galleries before Lemmy does), but I don’t think it would meaningfully move the graph.

Yes, it does - but you have to account for the users on there if you’re measuring the fediverse activity in general. And Mbin. Combined they’d add about 2.2k extra users this month.

I mean with how many instances have launched a piefed server the last few months and with how small Lemmy is in the first place even a thousand or so users switching would explain some of that slight downward slope at the end.

There are 43 Piefed instances.
