Mastodon has gained 106,723 monthly active users since the end of March (when Elon bought 9.2% of Twitter's shares). 93,603 are new accounts. Overall that's a 42% increase in Mastodon's MAU.
I assume this is mastodon.social. Small compared to twitter, but it’s progress.
I wonder if there are any in-person communities that support an instance, and how that fares, compared to loose online connection that is here today, gone tomorrow.
Lemmy would be great for that. Already has all the configs so you can make the instance private and use the registration application for access codewords.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !fediverse@lemmy.ml
A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.
Fediverse is a portmanteau of “federation” and “universe”. It is a common, informal name for a federation of social network servers whose main purpose is microblogging, the sharing of short, public messages.
Agree. I plan to move my account from mastodon.social to somwhere else. (just need to stop being lazy)

This idea makes sense.
