@Edent it feels slightly misleading to me to graph Pixelfed servers in this way in a post that’s clearly mostly about Mastodon, mainly because Pixelfed is so much more difficult/annoying to run. Having run both a Mastodon server and a Pixelfed server it’s no surprise to me at all that big Pixelfed servers aren’t springing up. Graphing Mastodon instances like this would paint a totally different picture, which suggests to me that other AP projects mostly have technical issues to overcome rather than social issues with decentralization.
