it would be nice to understand how something like fedidb calculates their numbers so an accurate comparison could be made!

Yeah, I wonder how they do that since there's no global firehose there…

i think you'd need to know what this means:

Ooh, ok, this might be it: mastodon.social/api/v1/insta...

I’m assuming the same API is used to display the number of users on an instance’s homepage

yea id like to understand what that number is too! i dont think you could get that number from the info on mastodon.social/api/v1/insta..., so maybe the one in your screenshot is an MAU? (thats also the number fedidb shows for mastodon.social)
mastodon.social/api/v1/instanc...

Maybe @Gargron.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy knows the answer?
Or @renchap.oisaur.com.ap.brid.gy?
(Being able to tag people on Mastodon from Bluesky is wild. Open protocols for the win!)

@o.simardcasanova.net This is the MAU for the instance.
Also the account you replied to did not enable bridging, so I needed to open Bluesky, find your account, then your reply, to understand what this was about. Bridging is good, but not very practical at the moment :(
