I just saw, that fedidb now has data for the biggest fediverse accounts, so I did a little plotting with it. Here is a graphic of the scattering of the 100 biggest accounts by the instance they are on. 38 of them are on mastodon.social https://fedidb.org/popular-fediverse-accounts (the data is in the alt text) #mastodon #chart #fedidb #fediverse
While this chart certainly shows how dominant mastodon.social in the Fediverse is, I like this chart. It also shows how diverse the Fediverse is. For any other social network this graph would be a simple circle. For the Fediverse it shows 38 different servers, and apart from mastodon.social, the distribution seems quite fair.
Very good!
Absolutely. I mean yeah 30-45% of the biggest accounts are on mastodon.social but it is the only one with a huge share. The rest is pretty diversely scattered among instances
