It seems the fediverse is continuing and growing again.

Total users are huge now.

There are many websites out there that pull data from the fediverse. So take that with a grain of salt. But anecdotally I am seeing a small rise in people using the various platforms as each get more mature and servers somewhat stabilize.

    There’s some caveats to the rise. There’s likely spam waves hitting pixelfed (~300k), 2 months ago a spam wave hit writefreely (~400k), and possibly Bookwrym currently (~4k).

    A weekly post breaking it down by software: https://piefed.zip/c/fedilytics@piefed.zip/p/1838661/growth-of-the-fediverse-20260920

    Edit: replaced link because the threadiverse link doesn’t seem to be working. Fixed spam accounts on writefreely.

      Haha. Guess we both replied basically the same thing to the post.

      Does look like +50k real growth over the last month. With the caveat that that is only counting the software I track, so could be greater.
