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.

I'm out of the loop, what happened in January to cause that sudden growth?

I have an account but I'm not active. Just not much of a social media guy in general.

Meta ended their fact checking program and decided that hate speech against queer folks is "freedom of speech"

Then people left in droves

Do you think saying women can't think for themselves is "hate speech"?
