Notes:

  1. Threadiverse is Piefed, Lemmy, and Mbin. Fediverse only accounts for listed software [17], not the other [112] software tracked by Fediverse-Observer.
  2. Fediverse-Observer provides daily MAU back to 20221130. FediDB only provides a current snapshot (snapshot within the last 15 minutes, no time series data) and only tracks some of the software [67].
  3. FediDB seems to use unclear math to get there counts and overestimate the MAU on most software (see previous post, if interested in learning more).

Edit: Added functionality to identify 1-Year, 6-Month, and 3-Month maximums, in addition to All-Time maxes. Added some bolding for easier viewing.

Edit 2: Added Pylova identifier to Piefed listing, as requested.

Edit 3: Added Snac, as requested.

Edit 4: Fixed Pylova link.
