What user numbers specifically?
Found nostr band always had trouble accurately calculating zaps
Discussion
the site is currently reporting less than 20k active users, that is way off
How do you figure? Is there another source?
i appreciate the project, and brugeman alot. but yeah. the numbers are off. at least for follows and zaps sent.
not sure it’s possible to get accurate numbers though because of the nature of the protocol
Everyone knows there's actually 24 active user (blokes) on nostr
the best 24 blokes in the world so we got that going for us
Just verified myself
Yes seems to be off. Showing ~same numbers as 18 months ago
These are "trusted users" - those with non-zero trust rank that we use to filter spam. You can turn-on raw numbers if you want, but those are meaningless and fluctuate wildly. I don't think anyone else even attempted to calculate some sane numbers that filter out bots, so there's nothing to compare to. We published our raw event data sets a while ago, if anyone wants to run their own numbers, I'd be happy to see an alternative view.
