@Gargron qucik question. Has anything changed on joinmastodon in the last week? We saw a rather sudden drop in traffic from the site for some reason. It is significant and i cant figure out why.

@selea So your instance has seen the same effect? Yea I was worried it was just us as well at first. It appears something funky must be going on with joinmastodon then...

Hopefully @Gargron knows whats up and if he doesnt at least he has been alerted there is an issue.

It is strange because the site actually appears to be working fine.

@freemo

Well, I am not sure that it has something todo with joinmastodon.org actually, it _may_ just be a trend over the whole network. If I recall correctly, it looks like there is only 30-50% of new user registration network wide if I look at the @mastodonusercount? Normally I've seen number around 100 per hour,

@Gargron

@selea

The trends on that bot seem somewhat normal. QOTO saw about a 80% reduction in traffic, the bot you linked at worst shows a small barely noticeable reduction.

@mastodonusercount @Gargron

@freemo

Yes, I am probably imagining things when it comes to that account.
But still, I've seen a big reduction in new accounts too. Usually I have 6-7 new users/day, but now it is 1 every 2nd day

@selea

Yea taht would seem to be in line with the 80% reduction I and other admins have seen.

Though its important to note it doesnt appear to be **all** instances on joinmastodon at least. I have spoken to three people including yourself on joinmastodon so far.. Including me 3 said they saw a huge reduction one said he didnt.
