I just saw, that fedidb now has data for the biggest fediverse accounts, so I did a little plotting with it. Here is a graphic of the scattering of the 100 biggest accounts by the instance they are on. 38 of them are on mastodon.social https://fedidb.org/popular-fediverse-accounts (the data is in the alt text) #mastodon #chart #fedidb #fediverse

I thought kbin had more users than lemmy? To be fair, the last time I checked it out was ~6 months ago haha

Kbin is quite a bit smaller than Lemmy.

And a lot younger - the project is less ready for prime time than Lemmy is. I think the last thing kbin.social needs right now is more users.

As a software Kbin is also more fragmented - most kbin users outside of kbin.social are running mbin.

It seems like it because there was an attempt to favor Kbin during Reddit migration (Also the guy running Feditips tried to poison the narrative against Lemmy) but it didn't go through because kbin kept breaking, especially with federation and moderation.
