Stats can be found here: https://the-federation.info/platform/73 - this site has been hugged to death for the moment.
Stats can also be found here: https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/dailystats
The site seems to be down?
Yeah it’s probably been hugged to death for the time being
Interesting. I saw a huge decrease in number of nodes (from like 190 to 150) for a bit, wondered what happened, and then it stopped loading. I guess it really was hugged to death
Found another site to use here https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/dailystats
Found this other site to use since the-federation is down.

Diaspora is one of the oldest of the oldest. Much older than mastodon. They’re federated too, but not on the same network.
Mastodon and lemmy uses ActivityPub. (Mastodon used to run on OStatus, but then switched to ActivituPub later) Diaspora uses its own protocol and refuses to ever switch to a most recent one.
Some fediverse services however (friendica and hubzilla which are kinda facebook-like) are using multiple protocols and can federate with both mastodon and diaspora.
Beats me, I’m new here too
