Fediverse is Continuing, Growing, and Strong
(fediverse.observer)
It seems the fediverse is continuing and growing again. Line go up is probably good!

Total users are huge now.
There are many websites out there that pull data from the fediverse. So take that with a grain of salt. But anecdotally I am seeing a small rise in people using the various platforms as each get more mature and servers somewhat stabilize.
Reddit is killing itself. It really didn't have to do anything but let X & Insta & TikTok feed into it. It has a better structure for daily use that isn't quite so toxic.
But instead they are letting Mods go crazy, Admin-bots that blow up your account with no explanation, user-bots that spam rage bait & other low effort LLM slop, and so on. It's a dying platform that should be thriving. The first place people find after searching "Less toxic Reddit" is fediverse, so of course it's growing.
Oh and for some reason shoehorning in games? A product that tries to be everything becomes nothing.
