Hello, you might have noticed (or not) that posts from kbin, more specifically kbin.social aren’t showing anywhere, this is due the DDoS protection they currently have on. So even if you are subscribed to kbin.social communities you won’t see any posts from the outside.
Same is happening inside kbin.social where users there cannot see posts from the outside. This is however temporary and the admin is working on getting federation back online.
The site is currently reporting 125k registered users
Edit: After a quick chat with the dev group it seems this number is just the total users discovered by this instance. The real amount of users is 22k as seen on https://kbin.social/nodeinfo/2.0
Edit: kbin.social is currently upgrading servers to handle the requests.
Is just reporting users on that instance, you can see fedia’s (another kbin instance) here http://fedia.io/stats.
Edit: After a quick chat with the dev group it seems you are correct, it’s just reporting the total users discovered
It is reporting users it knows about, which includes federated servers. The local stats can be seen at https://fedia.io/nodeinfo/2.0, under users.
2123 total users
