Effectively, the fediverse is Mastodon.
This is why PieFed added the option to follow Mastodon users recently.

I always felt this was a concept I would see more of, when I first started reading about the fediverse I assumed most apps or platforms would support all types of content and just present them differently

That is the dream and something that overly-enthusiastic proponents pretend is already real.
It's kinda true if your view of the fediverse is just Mastodon and friends. But once you expand the definition of fediverse to be "anything that uses ActivityPub", e.g. the threadiverse, it is much less true.
I'm hoping to bridge that gap, better than it has been in the past.

The 19 million users for nodebb seems .. odd. What's the story there?

Funny, I was on Pixelfed for a bit but it seemed to me that there was no one there and not much going on. How wrong I was, apparently.

Not a graph, but here's a post that has the infomation you're interested in.
TL:DR - The threadiverse (Lemmy+Piefed+Mbin) is:
- 1 month ago: +0.8%
- 3 months ago: +7.2%
- 6 months ago: -5.2%
- 1 year ago: +0.1%
Basically, roughly 5k MAU moved from Lemmy to Piefed.

Thank a lot for this beautiful table !
️ Good job

I don't know. Probably technical stuff related to incremental activitypub support in nodebb. Let's just ask, Julian. I hope that's the correct handle.

I apologize in advance for the ping : @julian@community.nodebb.org

That would be interesting. I can't achieve that with the website fediobserver. We will have to open a table but i'm too lazy ^^
I admit i don't understand lemmy graph in march. Losing so much users in the span of three months is probably an error.

Is that when lemm.ee went down?

How are we smaller than Peertube, it feels like there's barely anything going on over there?

I don't think that we are smaller than peertube. The combined threadiverse rocks ! 🦾
