According to the-federation.info the #fediverse has crossed 3 million registered users (and this is excluding Gab)
@bclindner yeah - that's the metric w.r.t community health + growth that I've been watching @Gargron
@Gargron but only one 
@lanodan Remember that they basically just lie.
@lanodan I can not read today, sorry!
@Gargron Very cool milestone...!
🇳🇱
@Gargron What is it including gab? I should check what percentage of the network they are, im curious now.
@jimpjorps Haha, they wish! @freemo @Gargron
@gargron Resistance is futile, the future is federated.
@Gargron
Your own instance is pretty cringe, though.
@Gargron, yes, it is, I' was banned for saying that illegal immigration wasn't okay. An echo-chamber, no less. Isn't that cringeworthy enough?
@Pervertor @Gargron you doing alright there mate? Record stuck on the same talking point?
@restioson @Gargron yeah, pretty good, and you?

@Gargron Very nice number 😃 I think I joined my first Mastodon account a few days or weeks before we reached the first million.It's really cool to see how the network is growing 👍
@Gargron But, it counts projects like matrix as part of the fediverse which imho makes no sense. Isn’t the *fediverse* term just for ActivityPub and OStatus implementations? I would exclude diaspora…
@m4sk1n It doesn't count Matrix users
@Gargron Just realised it only counts nodes.
@Gargron Still, I think diaspora is not considered part of the fediverse and it just inflates the number. If it was for *federated social networking platforms user count*…
@Gargron Has anyone ever tried staging a raid on Gab or anything like it? On some occasions there have been Reddit pages of a similar ilk that have gotten hijacked and turned into jokes.
Server run by the main developers of the project 
It is not focused on any particular niche interest - everyone is welcome as long as you follow our code of conduct!
@Gargron 500k active monthly users as well which I think is even more exciting
