This is an image-post and not a link to the real page, but the active user count follows a more normal curve. This jump in registered users isn’t organic. If it’s not bot accounts, it’s some weird reporting error. Also note… The lemmy.world registered user count didn’t jump all that much… so if it’s bot accounts they’re either not registering there or have already been purged.
Hexbear did just federate, and that does bring in like 25k users, but not 100k. But maybe that’s being multi-counted somehow.
