  I don’t know what’s happening in Hong Kong, but lemmy.world and lemm.ee and some others are hosted in Finland (as is Lemmy.zip now!) because of Hetzner, so that’s where we get most of our traffic from

    Would users of other instances show in these stats? Figured they’d be browsing from their own instances.

      No, not them visiting their own instance for example.

      What I think this is made up of is the activities created by users on other instances, i.e. if someone makes a comment on their own instance but we’re federated with it, we get a copy of that activity and that counts towards this traffic.
