primal data suggests at least 100k monthly actives fwiw
Discussion
Good to know, thank you. What does it show, daily?
10k
🫂 Hopefully, this data will help users to be more active and keep spreading the word.
A social network without followers or friends tends to be less appealing. Most people have their established networks and quickly lose interest in promoting their presence on new platforms. This is also evident with BlueSky, where many accounts remain inactive
BlueSky usage is trending down past couple months as well. Reddit is growing quite well.
So our numbers of 16k DAU and 42k WAU are close in line with Primal's 10k DAU and 100k MAU. Anecdotal data I remember from Amethyst and Damus is in line too. There's no magic behind these numbers, Nostr data is open. It is what it is.
👏
Thank you for confirming and for all you do to help grow Nostr. These numbers align with my understanding and the testing I've conducted over the years. Accurate data is important not only for measuring growth but also for assessing the overall health of the ecosystem.
Hmmm. Ok. Feels like they are all hiding somewhereor something. Lol.
90/9/1 rule
90 percent of Internet users lurk, not posting or interacting.
9 percent post and interact with others and creators.
1 percent are creators.
Do you think this ratio applies to small numbers?
I would hope we have many lurkers. That’s also good.
Hard to tell without better analytics, but that will get better. Take a note I posted earlier today for example.
4 comments, 19 reacts, 5 zaps for 147 sats.
Here are the analytics from nostr.build
It seems fair to say some people are lurking. I have 4000 follows on nostr.band, those numbers are obviously inflated. Npub.world reports 3000, which I still think is inflated. This image had ~600 views, and say 20-25 people interacted with it.
