@gandalf-der-12te. Trying to interpret your post.

Do you have any comparable data, from other other apps? stuff like engagement %, daily, monthly users and such?

Also also we we could aim for both more quality and quantity. Why not? Trashy people can always join Trashy instance. That’s imo what’s lemmy is all all about. A hook in every nook?

i don’t have any data on other fediverse platforms at hand rn, but from memory IIRC mastodon has close to 1 million users, and it’s by far the biggest chunk of the fediverse.

mastodon is people-centric, where you have person/user as the central element of organization, and they can have posts.

lemmy is content-centric, where you have communities as the central element of organization, and they can have posts.

AFAIK, content-centric networks are only lemmy and piefed as of today, modeled after Reddit. lemmy is bigger (i think) with 30K (active) users.

  There's also Mbin, which I'm using. And NodeBB and Discourse if we go beyond Reddit-inspired and include forums.

  Good point regarding the differences in content or user driven apps. Hadn’t thought of that.
  
  It would be good to have comparable info on trends numbers and such.

Focusing on quality does not discourage quantity. On the contrary, the phrase “quality over quantity” is intended to imply that the best way to improve quantity is to improve quality.
