      Before Elon, it was about half an million, now it’s about 4.5 million, though about a million of the new users made an account and then immediately went back to Twitter, so it’s more like 3.5 million

        Still, nothing to sneeze at. Glad reddit is going through the same thing right now. If peertube or whatever other YouTube fedi analogue takes off I think we could see federation of social media take off and really become its own bubble.
