    Seems like poor metrics. Need an average across time. Also, if that’s the case even with that and with how easy it is for ordinary people to get an account on another server, does that mean we dumped a ton of bots?

    I was registered on Lemm.ee. Now I’m registered on piefed.social. So, technically not Lemmy anymore. I do suspect a lot us moved to piefed. That was the general buzz. I genuinely don’t know if the posts and comments of Piefed don’t track on Lemmy. I’m sure the ones amongst piefed users in piefed instances don’t though. That alone could justify a substantial part of that drop. But I’m still here interacting with Lemmy.

      I think the fact that you’re here means it’s Lemmy. Just because lemmy isn’t in the url doesn’t mean it doesn’t use the protocol

        Piefed is not the same as lemmy, they do interact together. But they use different apis and are tracked differently as mentioned in another thread.

    Beauty of fediverse. An instance with thousands of users and posts goes down, fediverse still lives.

    It’s pretty obvious that when a server goes offline the total number of posts will go down, but it’s not a helpful metric. Comparing the posts per day, rather than total number of posts on different days, would give a better idea of the effect.
