    @PP44 @uthredii Last I saw Mastodon has just over 200,000 users, up from less than 40,000 two weeks ago. To put that in perspective, when they shut down AOL Instant Messenger because “no one was using it anymore” they were averaging 1,000,000 users a day

      Mastodon has been growing fast over the last week. 3-4 data ago it had 1m monthly active users. You can see that there has been loads of sign ups since then so that number is probably higher now.

      Thanks, good perspective. Even if the history behind the two services are different.
