Total user count is a vanity metric. Monthly active users is more relevant and on that we are still way off from the ATH of 2.1 million from 2023.

Also, with the nature of the Fediverse where one single person can have multiple accounts, even this metric might be bogus.

As opposed to other social media platforms like reddit where you can only have one, right? ๐Ÿ˜œ

I didn't say that reddit's metrics were any better so your gotcha makes no sense.
