What is your opinion about the size of Gemini protocol community? I downloaded some archives of Bubble (bbs.geminispace.org) and found that it had fallen off quite a bit. I don't have the numbers in front of me, but the archives went from a megabyte to half that, suggesting a fall-off from peak activity. Is there a graph indicating the Gemini population trend we can all look at and admire? Any stats?

it seems like there's a fundamental difference between asking about the quality of a *protocol* and then also the size of the userbase communicating THROUGH it. If it's a good protocol, shouldn't it scale to any size of userbase? · 3 weeks ago

i like the small-ness of gemini but more users wouldn't hurt. i don't think this will ever become the next big thing and i'm more than happy about that. · 1 month ago

It does feel like there was a lot of users back during lockdown and far fewer now. I know I'm guilty of not being on as much. Life's been lifelike, as they say. · 1 month ago

Just glancing at a couple {variable} over time, graphs it seems the place is still growing, not exponentially, but steadily. · 1 month ago

Here are some nice graphs based on statistics from crawling Geminispace:
