        Lemmy peaked the moment I joined, and I will forever take the merit for that. /s

        (Any idea what happened between January and February last year?)

        It is in “low maintenance”, since it’s working ok that’s not a problem for me.

        The new project misses the most useful feature of the-federation, sorting instance by “active users” (If you want to go with the “wisdom of the crowds” when picking instances).

        There also seems to be a big differences between the stats. Do you really think lemmy has over 20k users?

        Iirc thats chapo.chat dropping out because they disabled the statistics endpoint at some time. Also i believe that lemmy.ml was counted twice for a time, when it was renamed from dev.lemmy.ml and redirected to the new domain.

          lirc … irc … internet relayed chatLines ok, so, with that “chapo.chat” the # of “total local comments” went close to
          2 000 000 …
          … then waaaaah! , such a roller coaster.

          …“Nodes” growth is good, tho. (sorry for the white graph to anyone using the dark view)

      Is there anything regarding how evenly spread the user count is across nodes? If not, maybe developing some sort of formula or index may be good.

      Federation only works if people arent all cramming together on the same instance.

    Indeed!

    I’m really enjoying the influx of new users and posts. I’m glad I stuck around even before Reddit banned all my decade+ old accounts.

      Just guessing, but maybe “gaming news” functionally fits well within /c/gaming. So there is little reason for people to join your first /c/. The other I would not be able to write much about 'cause I do not know what that one is about.

    I’m new to lemmy and have been enjoying it so far, but the UI kinda sucks and isn’t user friendly
