OK, I see a lot of post/shitpost about that, but is it that real ? Do you think migration toward Mastodon will last ? Will it be enough to create a long lasting positive momentum ? Or will people slowly leave to other proprietary social networks, or even back to Twitter ?
@PP44 @uthredii Last I saw Mastodon has just over 200,000 users, up from less than 40,000 two weeks ago. To put that in perspective, when they shut down AOL Instant Messenger because "no one was using it anymore" they were averaging 1,000,000 users a day
Thanks, good perspective. Even if the history behind the two services are different.
