Compared against the predominant incumbent social media platforms, the fediverse is very small.
information sources:
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if there was more Fediverse users than listed.
I was reading the Wikipedia page linked just an hour ago.
and I was surprised to see over a billion daily users on Facebook. I used to think at best that'd be in millions.
I understand now that what do people mean when they day social media's amplification of a certain message can have great impact. I used to take it lightly, partly because I an totally detached to any of these big platforms.
and being on Lemmy is a wholly different experience.
