Somewhere between 25-68% of X accounts are bots. Bluesky has seen a surge in bots, but I don't have good numbers.
Just like certain financials are reported "adjusted for inflation", going forward I propose all Fediverse statistics be inflated by 50% to "adjust for botflation".
Therefore, Fediverse is now at 22.5 million accounts adjusted for botflation 🎉
The media seems to love these big numbers, so let's play along. No more MAU. Only describe accounts registered, adjusted for botflation.
