Editing to let people know that I will be blocking anyone who feels the need to tell me why this graph is inaccurate. I truly don't care, but feel free to chime in with your useless take and land a spot on my block list! ๐Ÿ™‚

Mastodon had 1M something before Elon, hit up close to 2M and now is sitting around 800k.

This stat is really surprising. Do you by any chance have a link where I can see this data?

I'm sorry, I think I was looking at overall numbers and not just Mastodon. According to https://mastodon.fediverse.observer/stats&months=48, it seems Mastodon was at ~575k MAU before Musk, shot up to ~1.5M early 2023 and is now sitting around 800k.

No worries, thanks for the link to the data, I appreciate it!
