Like a graph of the number of users on the whole lemmyverse.
Solved, graph here: https://the-federation.info/lemmy
You can follow that info and other related ones here: https://the-federation.info/lemmy
Note: in the past Lemmy’s API fixed the way to count users.
You can use the Lemmy crawler I wrote recently to get statisticts in json format. It would be nice if someone would use that to collect data in regular intervals, and build some graphs from it.
I have another question, where did most old users go? I was looking around and found this post and it’s sad that most of them aren’t active anymore T_T
I’d guess they wanted more network effect. So they went back to proprietary apps.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_effect, tldr; more users = good.
This would be neat to have, at the very least.
But would it start at the federation, or would it start at the beginning?
