I imagine they’d count capital gains in the analysis

The NYTimes analysis is just about income taxes

Aren't you contradicting yourself here?

It's basically meat sauce between burger buns. I haven't had one in ages, but they would make frequent appearances in grade school cafeterias and other events involving large amounts of children needing to be fed with low effort. I remember quite liking them; it's basic, but great comfort food, and easy to eat.

It's like poetry; it rhymes.

Agreed, it was pretty good until then. But the last paragraph is what made it a great take.

Right, exactly what all store owners want. For potential customers to go somewhere else instead.

If he's young enough, he might be getting his safety net from parents or something. I could see this being viable part-time work for, e.g., college students.

Looks like Pixelfed is about 2%. Try Mastodon, I guess - it's listed as 72%.

EDIT: lol, I just did a quick search - apparently Instagram's monthly active user count is over two Billion. With a 'B'. Even with 10 million, it wouldn't compare.

Clicking through to the additional statistics is really interesting. The equivalent graph for Monthly Active Users shows a big bump in June/July 2023. That lines up with the reddit event, iirc. If those causality assumptions are accurate, it's neat how the numbers for total users is more affected by Twitter, but the numbers for active users is more affected by Reddit.

EDIT: nevermind, I didn't realize the timelines were different. The big Twitter exodus isn't actually in the second graph, so they can't be compared. It probably had a bigger impact there as well.

This is for the fediverse as a whole, not just Lemmy. If you click through, there's a pie chart that shows the vast majority of users are on Mastodon. Lemmy only accounts for about 4% of these numbers.
