Returning from Absence (Change in MAU over day – Change in Total Users over day):

  • A positive number shows how many users who haven’t be active in over a month (MAU) or half-year (HYAU) have returned to activity. A negative number means (x) users have stayed away for greater than 1 month (MAU) or 6 months (HYAU).

Retention:

  • MAU/HYAU: Roughly shows how ‘sticky’ the server is. The higher the number, the ‘sticker’ the server.
  • MAU/Total: Roughly indicates short term growth.
  • HYAU/Total: Roughly indicates medium term growth.
  • Relative: Roughly indicates how stickiness or growth compares across instances, relative to how long they have been active (natural logorithmic fit). Positive percent indicates they have an (x)% higher stickiness/growth compared to other instances active for the same amount of time.

Software Comparison:

Meta Analysis (Current) Servers Servers (Alive %, #) Average Alive Server Age (Days) Avg Users per Alive Server1 Single User Servers (% of Alive, (#)) Uniformity Method 1 (Lower Better) Uniformity Method 2 (Higher Better)
Piefed 110 57% (63) 358 165 37% (23) 9% 16%
Lemmy 596 51% (306) 876 256 57% (173) 3% 19%
Mbin 23 65% (15) 862 68 13% (2) 14% 31%

Note:

  • “*” in the Piefed server names denotes they are using the soft-fork Pylova. I’m going to count them as Piefed servers unless a hard schism occurs.
  • [1] % does not include single user servers.
  • Alive servers are responsive servers with > 0 MAU.

Uniformity Method 1: Relative MAU Standard Deviation (%)1 - More accurate representation of uniformity.

Uniformity Method 2: Median to Mean (>10 MAU, %) - More distribution-shape dependent and more variable with fewer data points.

Notes:

  1. Up to the top 20 most populated (MAU) instances are analyzed.
  2. Please let me know if you have any calculations you would like me to run.
  3. I can now selectively remove servers from the analysis. If you see any servers that shouldn’t be there, let me know (with a reason).
  4. I can now easily selectively identify servers running forks. If you see any servers that aren’t identified as such, let me know.
