Mastodon-the-software is used by far by the most people on fedi. The biggest instance, mastodon.social, is home to over 200.000 active accounts as of this writing. This is roughly 1/10th of the whole Fediverse, on a single instance. Worse, Mastodon-the-software is often identified as the whole social network, obscuring the fact that Fediverse is a much broader system comprised of a much more diverse software.

After writing that article:
- Akkoma grew fivefold in Monthly Active Users (from 2 to 10 thousands), with much credit to mycrowd.ca
- Lemmy and /kbin combined more then doubled, from over 1 thousand to almost 3 thousands
- FediDB revealed, that the most active fediverse instance (by new post count) is actually misskey.io, not mastodon.social
@Kierunkowy74 That interesting, especially that the most active fediverse instance is misskey.io – ok, interesting because I even didn’t know about its existence, only about the software.

It grew in popularity in Japan as a more cultural-inclusive Twitter alternative/internet experience. So it really blew up there.
