    Wow 23.7 million active users seems surprisingly high compared to Twitter’s projected 56.1.

    Yeah the fediverse’s real-world impact is definitely miniscule currently, but I can’t seem to trust even a tiny bit in Meta to not pull the EEE plug. I understand your opinion tho.

      Honestly I was surprised so many people still use Twitter.

      I just figure if Threads federates, it means one less reason for people to say “well Mastodon has nobody on it” because they can just add people on Threads. I think more people would leave Threads for Mastodon than Mastodon for Threads.

        It’s in the source:

        Instagram’s Threads is forecast to have 23.7 million monthly active users in the US by the end of this year as opposed to X’s 56.1 million, according to Insider Intelligence.
