Mastodon went from 1.2M active users last week to 1.8M active users this week. That's not 70M users overnight, but it's something! 🙂

That's just 70M users signed up. I'm sure a *very* low percentage of those signed up will stay active after the initial sugar rush, especially once the non-celebrities/influencers discover how invisible they are there (it's worse in that respect than Twitter ever was).
It's just plain better here in the Fediverse.

Mastodon has a built in user base of 0 basically so that’s a total gain of 1.6M, Instagram has a built-in user base of like 800M, so Threads has 730 Million people who aren’t on it yet. So if you think about it one way, more people will choose not to use Threads than will choose to join Mastodon.
If my math checks out that’s a good thing.

You created a wonderful space herearound, I'm really grateful for it! I see that it would be an overwhelming success for you to get 70M people over night, but setting rules that makes this place a human-friendly, naturally growing space is an achievement far beyond what numbers can express. Thank you. 🙏 💝

we shouldn't aspire to 70m overnight or we risk the most important thing about fedi: fedi culture.
This is a Tortoise and Hare story IMO.
Growth at *interpersonal speed* is what we need. We don't need to compete because we've already won, but growing too fast is one way we can lose.

It is sometimes a blessing in disguise that somethings drive off people for being too complicated (Although it isn't). This ensures a level of quality. It will be like earlier days when more sensible people dominated the internet because it was seen as technical.

one step at a time.. also eventually people will realize proprietary social media is about vacuuming up as much data as possible. so algorithmically generated ads can be algorithmically suggested, after the “deep state” or whatever people call it. algorithmically determines weather or not said user is to be deemed a nonperson or not, will then hopefully click on said ad.
