    The interesting thing to note is each website I go to that looks at the total number of lemmy users is wildly different. Im wondering if there is some sort of blocker/defederated instance occurred a couple of months ago? Im not sure.

    Either way, number of users are up.

      I think counting fediverse users is about as difficult as counting e-mail adresses.

        Your probably right. And if an instance defederates with others, it may look like the number of users dropped without actually dropping.
