Takeaways:

• No one is having a good week besides Bookwyrm
• Positive Daily Growth (last 7/7 Days): Bookwyrm
• Weekly Growth (5-10%, >500 MAU): Bookwyrm
• Mastodon’s big drop (~291k) is actual a server count error (~285k) that was corrected, so a real drop of ~6k

• Source: [1] Fediverse-Observer, [2] FediDB

Notes:

1. Threadiverse is Piefed, Lemmy, and Mbin. Fediverse only accounts for listed software [16], not the other [113] software tracked by Fediverse-Observer.
2. Fediverse-Observer provides daily MAU back to 20221130. FediDB only provides a current snapshot (snapshot within the last 15 minutes, no time series data) and only tracks some of the software [67].
3. FediDB seems to use unclear math to get there counts and overestimate the MAU on most software (see previous post, if interested in learning more).
