In before someone says “but how many are bots?”… but seriously how many are bots?

It's hard to tell exactly, but probably the vast majority of them.

The graphs at The Federation are wild. Total Users spiked to nearly 2M a few days ago then collapsed to about 1M today. The Active Users charts did the same thing. And both numbers are still falling sharply.

Edit: Something must be going on with that site. I checked a few hours later and the graphs are very different.
