I’m a bit confused at the explosive growth of Lemmy and the slower growth of Kbin. Do the stats reflect the reality or is there a problem with the data being fed back to the various stat hubs?

I know the difference is partly because Lemmy was a larger platform, and is better known but the growth of Kbin seems suprisingly flat while the community seems to be getting more and more active?

    Lotta bots on Lemmy. The stats I saw looked like 200k users in the last few weeks. I’d willing to gamble most are bots. Maybe some for ads, maybe some to claim names then sell 'em later.
