I don't even use Pixelfed, but its growth is kind of interesting to me:
- its recent rise
- its subsequent plateau
- its (expected) ebbing
The ebb lasted a lot longer than I was rooting for. But now it seems to have caught a recent uptick. Still slight in terms of its maximum peak, but respectable: 47K Monthly Active Users. (about the same as the total number of MAUs on Lemmy!)
Furthermore, it's also reflected in the half-year Active Users, meaning it's not just people who signed in a couple months ago who are now checking back in -- looks like brand-new active participants.
Any idea what caused this? Another "migrate" campaign? Did Instagram do something stupid again? Or is it just a data glitch?
Maybe because Meta is going to use your photos and all the other shit you post to train their AI models.
I think they started doing this 2 days ago, it was in the news, here in Europe at least.
I wish people cared but unfortunately it won't change anything
