@freemo
Have you considered capping the total number of users?

@users

@torresjrjr

To what end? our local timeline seems rather manageable. At some point it may get crowded and worth considering. Right now the pass seems workable, do you disagree?

@users

@freemo @users
I find the local timeline great as it is. Not to sparse or dense.

It was more of just a thought of whether you had a particular max number in mind, or if you had any commitments against small scale centralisation.

I'd imagine 13000 accounts (granted, some bots) is maybe a lot to handle. Doesn't seem like it though.

People also naturally inclined to take what they can instead of conserve, and grow as much as they can. What are your thoughts?

@torresjrjr

Its ahrd to judge based on numbers, as you suggest it has more to do with activity. I dont have a number in mind but mostly look to our local timeline and the interactions of the community to get a sense for if we are in the sweet spot. For now its good, if things start feeling crowded we will adjust accordingly.

I am a big fan of trying to feel your way through the rules and development of QOTO as hard numbers can be very misleading.

Depends how you measure it. I see users go dormant for months sometimes and then come back and be active for months. But in any one month about 1000 are active.

Active being that they logged int, not necessarily posted.

That's good
1000 is a good big number :ablobcatangel:
I think I should go to the instance timeline and federated timeline :ablobcaramelldansen:
Will make new frens :ablobblewobble:
@torresjrjr @users

@mur2501

Federated timeline can be a bit much, you do make friends taht way but its mostly garbage to sift through. Local instance timeline is a nice place though.

By the way in terms of users who post, its probably closer to half to 75% of that, just guessing though based on graphs and rough guestimates.
