Update: We are now past 140,000 users. Growth is still accelerating.
When I checked yesterday it was 91,000 users, it’s now 109,000 and counting up fast!
100,000 🎉
Stats can be found here: https://the-federation.info/platform/73 - this site has been hugged to death for the moment.

Very interesting. Anyone know why there was a huge drop in Total users for Lemmy from Nov 3 to Nov 4, 2022?. Total users went from 55178 to 37901.
The great dying of Nov 3rd ofc
Never forget.
Not to be confused with the second great dying of Nov 4th.
I mean we are called Lemmings for a reason. You didn’t get that memo?
Thanos snapped obviously don’t you remember half of humanity turning to dust https://tenor.com/0CEG.gif
Good for Thanos for not forgetting to delete the Lemmy accounts of those who are snapped out of existence.
Did some somewhat sizable instance close down or become invisible to that site or something like that maybe?
Looks like a huge drop in user counts a few minutes ago too: Down to 75K as of the time I made this comment despite the chart showing a much higher number immediately before that. I’m guessing there’s something off when it comes to counting the different instances.
