Lemmy growth curve

Seems the growth shows no sign of slowing

The vast majority of this "growth" is from bots. It's not genuine, unfortunately.
The total number of active users in the last month would be a much more accurate statistic. The number of users does not give the correct result due to bot accounts.
- Here is the active users last month curve
  
  It is not just active users , we have gone from under 100 nodes (instances) to over 300 in June alone , I really love the distributed network idea, I could see large sub from reddit running there own instance where they really have control of the destiny of there community.
  
  Like https://startrek.website/
- The chart here shows 37,000 active users for Lemmy, and this chart here shows 45,000 active users for Kbin.
  
  And if the recent trend continues then those numbers should grow.
  
  What actually is kbin? Is it just Lemmy with a different user interface? Does it have multiple instances like Lemmy?
Unfortunately these are most bots, which you can see from the active user ratio
