Looks like Pixelfed's growth spurt is slowing down. Absent any new external stimuli I'm guessing it'll stabilize around 200K to 300K monthly active users -- over a hundredfold order of magnitude from what it was just a month ago.

That’s exactly me as well. Tried it, looked at random people’s cats and dogs. Not for me.

I think that's kind of the challange we've got with regards to making social media from a nerds perspective. We're a bunch of nerds that don't understand the appeal of the things we want to make alternatives to, and wouldn't be interested in using them even if they weren't run by horrible evil tech corporations.
