     @raphael @mike @johnonolan @dansup no it's not. This shows about 1.9M new accounts. Dan unblocked three servers with 30K, 40K, and 250K users.

     @mike @johnonolan

     The jump in numbers is because @dansup started counting instances that were previously considered problematic and delisted from fedidb

     @wysteriary @evan @raphael @mike @johnonolan I re-blocked those servers, they are no longer included in the counts.

     @evan @raphael @mike @johnonolan @dansup Those numbers you're citing are what the unblocked servers report as MAU, not total registered accounts. The unblocked servers report ~1.4 million registered accounts altogether (950660+228908+294551).

     This leaves ~500k new accounts we can maybe attribute to actual growth. Which is still significant, but it's not 1.9M.

     @dansup @evan @raphael @mike @johnonolan Is that already accounted for in the FediDB graph or is the drop only going to show next month? Are the servers themselves objectionable, or just the numbers they report that are suspicious?
