Most Prolific Users

Most Posts per Day per User (>30 MAU):

• Piefed: quokk.au* (0.34, 9 weeks in a row)
• Lemmy: lemmy.today (0.22)
• Mbin: tardigram.com (0.50, 10 weeks in a row)

Most Comments per Day per User (>30 MAU):

• Piefed: quokk.au* (1.02, 12 weeks in a row)
• Lemmy: hexbear.net (1.19, 4 weeks in a row)
• Mbin: kbin.earth (0.30, 2 weeks in a row)

Note:

• Analysis Code is up on Codeburg.
• Also, my runtime reduction efforts did better than I thought (~60% reduction [~28min -> ~12min]).
• "*" 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.

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 Server^1^		Single User Servers (% of Alive, (#))	Uniformity Method 1 (Lower Better)	Uniformity Method 2 (Higher Better)
Piefed	110	57% (63)		336	167		35% (22)	9%	21%
Lemmy	596	54% (322)		841	255		57% (185)	3%	21%
Mbin	23	65% (15)		811	71		13% (2)	14%	30%

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.

Sources: List of Instances - Fediverse-Observer, Analysis Code

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.
