I'm not being hyperbolic, i'm looking at the grafana stats on the matrix<->libera bridge, and the total connected users from Matrix fluctuates between around 10,000 and 12,000 users (bearing in mind that connections from Matrix get kicked if the user from Matrix hasn't been seen for >30 days). https://netsplit.de/networks/statistics.php?net=Libera.Chat https://netsplit.de/networks/statistics.php?net=Libera.Chat implies there's around 42K users connected to libera overall, so we're talking about 23% of the total network participants here.
- tredre3 3y agoThank you I stand corrected, 12k is 10x what I expected. Though I feel like "tens of thousands" should means 20k or more, so hyperbole is still at play.. Knowing that at least 1/4 of Libera users are from a fairly unstable bridge is really depressing. IRC truly is dying...
- Arathorn 3y agoBefore I checked the figure, I thought it was around 22,000 (from memory, the I:line is set up for 25,000 connections). However, as time has gone one we've been more aggressive about culling idle connections on the Matrix side (plus there seems to be less activity to bridge to on the IRC side), hence it being around 11K these days. In terms of the bridge stability: there have obviously been stability problems over the last few months, but overall it's certainly been better than nothing. Agreed that the situation overall is really depressing.
