Amazing - 4k per hour.
The question is: is this a good thing?
this bot actually counts all of fediverse, the name is misleading
It says
User Count Bot for all known Mastodon instances
Is that not true? Does it count Lemmy and kbin users, too?
The bot uses https://instances.social/ to get the amount of users, but it’s kind of tricky since it’s not actually a good source for this type of info. If you check the website, you can find some Misskey, Pleroma, etc. instances, but not most of them. I couldn’t find any kbin instances there, but there were 2 lemmy instances. It also doesn’t match up at all with other fediverse stats websites like fedidb and fediverse.observer
