@mastodonusercount Looks like #mastodon #user growth, as it approaches 10 million, is becoming rather asymptotic.

@mastodonusercount Biggest hourly spike in #Mastodon #users since January 26. Nice! :) #twittermigration #twitterexodus

@mastodonusercount Maybe #mastodon #user growth is becoming more organic, or natural, or more of a “pull” of new users interested in coming here because it’s worthwhile, rather than merely from the artificial “non-organic” growth spurred by #musk’s latest outrages on #Twitter. If so, that would be a good thing. #mastonmigration

@mastodonusercount Ten days ago, the weekly growth rate was 50,000. No Elon Musk outrages (maybe 2FA) seem to be driving this gradual increase in #Mastodon #users

@mastodonusercount There's clearly a glitch with the bot. But, looking at total accounts, it's showing 2,273 increase over the past four hours. I assume it will soon stabilize and return to normal hourly reporting.

@mastodonusercount Does anyone know how to see number of #Mastodon #instances over time? On some reliable and consistent basis?

Really good article about the NY state Democratic party. It’s mostly about Jay Jacobs, but still offers a good overview and (I think) neutral perspective. #uspol #newyork #democrats https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/22/magazine/new-york-democrats.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

@mastodonusercount Thru early Feb, the approx. daily new user rate was 9K, increased to 26K mid-month, now dropped back to 16K. None of which seems driven by big external news. I have no explanation.

@johnquiggin @warmapper Western military analysts and, apparently, the UKR general staff seem confident that they will be able to execute a retreat. (Or hold out indefinitely?) I hope so.

@mastodonusercount This #usercount went way up in mid-Feb, then dropped down to 200/hour recently, now back up to over 1,000/hour - all without any widely publicized driving factor (such as some annoying action by #musk ). It’s hard to believe that a behavior of large numbers of people (#Mastodon #newusers ) varies so widely, with no external reason. (Medium instance?) I have no clue what’s really happening; and claim no special expertise; but it’s hard to believe this data.
