@TheKinrar So I've been following this bot which takes data from instances.social (which you maintain) and 40 minutes ago it showed a huge spike in users and instances.

Me and some others are trying to figure out if it's a bug with the bot, if there is a sudden influx of spammers, or if instances.social suddenly added a ton of new Mastodon instances that weren't previously tracked. Let me know as soon as possible.
