why are so many lemmy.ml users not active compared to .world or beehaw?

it is much more when you look at the entire Threadiverse, e.g all Lemmy and Kbin instances combined, it is even more, at 134.000+ active users (created accounts are inflated due to people spamming bot accounts)

This is amazing

Who would have thought, taking away a huge reason why people use your platform and being a douche bag about it would drive people to use other platforms.

I wonder if we can take the data in that site and see whether or not the fediverse has a "long tail." Or if the mass migration has consolidated folks into a more traditional bell curve across servers.

The long tail is a concept that applies in a number of ways but I'm most familiar with it from the very very early days of SEO. The idea that the thing you're interested in (in this case active users) are spread over so many tiny instances that they seem like a small part of the whole when in fact they make up the majority.
