- Note: Threadiverse is Piefed, Lemmy, and Mbin. Fediverse only accounts for listed software [12], not the other [117] software tracked by the website.
- Source: Fediverse-Observer
- Caveats: Only using 1 source, using two different sets of data within the same source (why 6 month and 1 year data seems off compared to the others, I didn’t dig through the code to figure out why that would be).
Takeaways:
- Big growth in the Fediverse this week (ex. Mastodon >50%, Lemmy and Piefed >10%). Looks like the Fediverse-Observer software updated yesterday and found(?) a bunch of previously unknown servers (10-50%). Due to the change, my API code now works and made this post far easier :)
- Piefed and Loops had positive growth each day last week
- Congrats to Piefed (>5000 MAU) and PeerTube for reaching All-Time highs (>40,000 MAU)
- Forgejo lost a server in the last week that had ~80% of its users (20260217)
