It would be an interesting shot across the bow to corporate controlled social media to show opensource, open access social medias growth. I'm sure its in an exponential phase. It also would seem important to the community to know. Is there a way to query across the fediverse to look at user numbers?
Lemmy and the Fediverse. Select 'Active last month' for best estimation of actual activity. E.g., this is the current burst in Lemmy due to the Reddit exodus:
It's multiplied by 4 or 5 and still increasing.
I made into lemmy.world before they shut down sign ups. I knew I needed to hurry and get on board for the rest of the pack! I'm happy I made it am excited to help this place grow into something fruitful for all of us.

Impressive. Still does not make a bump on the graph for the whole fediverse. But that will surely come.
Wow. Thats a great graph. Does any one have an interpretation for the bumps/ toothed pattern we see earlier in the plot?
Is that instances coming and going, or maybe testing of some kind?

Here is another website, with slightly different numbers
I've seen this post today showing users on each instance: https://beehaw.org/post/466182 It's not automated, but the op said they'd post updates too :)
