Fair enough! I've just seen that there are actually extensive street networks underneath Helsinki, which is a very small city. With traffic lights and roundabouts. I think they are supposed to be service roads, but the network felt pretty robust and goes straight through the city below ground. I can't help think what it woudl be like if above ground streets were just blocked off and replaced with underground routes.

@Artemis13Athena There's a legend for each color, so there are 4 different data points in the picture: Number of users (darker blue), active instances (dark orange), toots (tweets) per hour (light orange). It seems to indicate that 4500 active users are producing on average 50 000 toots per hour. So everyone toots 11 times an hour. Hourly increase (light blue) indicates how many new users are joining per hour. So over 4000 per hour as of late.
@tasinone @mastodonusercount That's an important question and it would be good to include the information in that original toot. I don't know that there is a "world wide server".
@mastodonusercount Is this only on mastodon.social or the world wide server?

@qag When you think about it, it's pretty insane that virtually all bigger cities have designed the infrastructure around car-traffic above ground. What if we had underground infrastructure with highways, massive parking garages, and branching smaller lanes to the most important hubs in the city. Then, above ground it would look like your second picture.
