Take that data with a pinch of salt. Their comments per day surpasses total Lemmy comments for all time it seems: https://the-federation.info/platform/73

It's still great growth, and a first solid phase of the migration! :)

It makes every comment like yours all the more valuable :)

I’m doing my part!

Not just a pinch of salt, just take the salt.

It’s not accurate at all. You can see instances reporting 97k posts whereas they only have 23 posts.

That makes it look like there's some kind of extremely-prolific commenting bot -- or messed up statistics -- on lemmyonline.com, as it has only 52 users -- including inactive ones -- but four times as many comments as the second-place instance.

EDIT: And from kbin.social, I only see a small number of actual comments on that instance:
