- meetups323 4y agoHow does that counter work with the whole federation thing? Also is that sign ups, monthly active, monthly engaged, daily active,...?
- gjsman-1000 4y agoAdd to that. I signed up years ago but have long lost my account. Furthermore, because there is no one true server, why not have multiple addresses on multiple instances, like you would with email?
- rvz 4y agoNope. 3.6 Million 'registered' and roughly 1 million actives. [0] Still no match for the 217 Million+ Twitter daily active users I'm afraid after 6 years of existing. [0] https://fediverse.party/en/mastodon/ https://fediverse.party/en/mastodon/
- UncleOxidant 4y agoI've only been on mastodon for a couple of days, but it reminds me of the early days of twitter. The old twitter that I was missing. Not having 217M users can be viewed as a feature for some of us.
- rvz 4y agoEach time an exodus happens in reality the users 'said' they would leave only come back after a few months. Mastodon did not gain significant retaining users after #deleteFacebook, #deleteInstagram and #leavingTwitter trended. It is not "early days" and anything compared to being 'A viable Twitter alternative' other than Facebook and Instagram has only shown themselves to be a complete failure. Just like how Gab (another alternative) with roughly the same number of active and registered users as Mastodon also failed to be a viable Twitter alternative since that has instead turned into another echo chamber but including the undesirables putting off many users on Twitter from moving. Mastodon as far positioning itself as being 'A viable Twitter alternative' after 6 years of existence has failed to gain any significant amount of former Twitter users or traction. After 6 years, it isn't early days.
