I'm curious if other kbin will see a similar increase, although since we're federated with Lemmy it doesn't really matter as much to me so long as the Fediverse is gaining traction which is hopefully what is happening here after the Reddit fallout.
Kbin is up from 2k users last week to 40k users.
Yes, but that was in preparation and during the early stages of the Reddit boycott (and due to kbin being a completely new project). In the same two days Lemmy jumped from 156,456 to 350,459 users, kbin went from 40,130 to 42,729. Still notable, but among the lowest two-day increases kbin has seen for a week.
Also note that Lemmy's increase of active users was minimal in the same period, so the new ones are basically all inactive.
