Fedidb.org recommends people who view their statistics on their “Threadiverse” tracking page that people should not use graphs and numbers from the total users due to the surge of bot-accounts, and should instead use the monthly active users. This puts the “Threadiverse” at 87,089. Lemmy with 37,197 and Kbin at 44,136. Fedidb.org also shows that the number of accounts is now at 1,75 million, though most of these accounts are probably just bots.

Out of curiosity how has Kbin got more active users, it seems like the majority of subs jumped ship to Lemmy instances

Similarly the majority of current/planned apps for iOS/android are all targeted towards Lemmy

Edit: I guess a question about how active users are calculated, something like 90% of Reddit users don't comment/post and I'd assume it would be similar here so would feel weird to exclude them though I guess the stats are going to be a bit wacky for a while regardless

I think that perhaps more Reddit users are moving to Kbin because it feels & looks more like Reddit. At least that is the feeling that I get. But in all honesty, no idea.

That's where I started due to ease on the eyes and similar experience at first. Now I'm more comfortable on lemmy. Also, @ward2k i don't know how it factors into active users, but they could just call kbin a home and mostly interact on lemmy communities. No idea how that affects numbers.
