PixelFed has increased the Fediverse's monthly active users by over 40% in the last few weeks, how do we feel? (lemmy.ml)

You can see it if you check https://fedidb.org/. Monthly active users have gone from just a hair under one million to somewhere around 1.4 million and still growing. How do we think this will go? How do we feel about this influx of new users? Has PixelFed done something different that Mastodon hasn't?

I feel like I didn't really recognize having different "platforms" like Mastodon, PixelFed, etc would give multiple opportunities for the fediverse to make a "first" impression with people.

Yeah, but that's not browsing; that's targeting a specific account you want to view more of.

Oh, to browse all the posts rather than just one account's, go to https://pixelfed.social/web/explore which should show pretty much everything. (that's the main server with the most users by far, and any other PF servers are federated with it so most of theirs should show up there as well)
