Does anybody have any idea about how many users this social media platform has? I'm enlisted with QOTO.org but I keep seeing folks with other domain names on this too. Still trying to figure this platform out.
@mamur have a look at the instances at the bottom of https://joinmastodon.org/
I'm not sure whether those are active or total users, but it should give you an idea of the relative sizes of the major instances: there are a thousand of us qoto-ers, a few hundred thousand on mastodon.social, and plenty of tiny instances with only a handful of people.
@mamur I don't know how to see how many we are, but You see people from other domains (instances) because we're all connected and can see each other as a decentralized network. The different menus as I understand, someone correct me if I'm wrong:
Home - a mix between your instance "qoto.org" and the people you follow, which may be in other instances such as mastodon.social
Local timeline - Your instance timeline (qoto.org)
Federated timeline - A hell where all the different instances converge
@mamur
Afaik we should be approaching 2.5 million users as fediverse.
@arteteco
Great. Thank you.
🇳🇱
@mamur Over 2 million in the fediverse. Qoto is a collection of nodes in the fediverse with a highly customized server.
@mamur I hope this helps -
