Not necessarily a bad thing. A lot of new users to the fediverse.
I thought the cropping was just because the op was making a 69 joke
70% of what?
Surprising to me that Lemmy is only at 4.3%, it definitely feels very active to me.
It’s incredibly active. It’s not gigagigant size, like masto, but it has a userbase large enough to survive for many years without an infusion. Reddit is still censoring lemmy sites, in case anyone else is curious
People forget web forums were way smaller than lemmy and ran just fine and were very active. Lemmy has a very different use case to mastodon. Since you don’t need individuals to latch onto. We are having a discussion on lemmy as equals around a topic not followers of a person like how a Micoblog is designed to be.
Yes very active. So active that, in fact, I keep seeing the same 1000 usernames all over Lemmy.
eh, reddit was like that for like the first 10 years
Yeah, and it started sucking when it added more users.
What am I looking at exactly? I see a cropped image, and mastodon is under 70%. Based on an educated guess and nothing more, I’m going to guess what you’re trying to convay is that in the pie that represents the total fediverse, mastodon used to account for more than 70%, and now smaller services are growing. So mastodons total pie share shrinks, as the pie grows in other areas.
Is that about what you’re trying to say? Or am I way off?
Correct. It’s from https://fedidb.org/, if you scroll down the main page you can find the Software User Distribution pie
