     Continuing too monitor sign-ups, we not only see that 5,000+ hourly sign-ups persist, but also that it is *entirely* feasible that Mastodon could break 350,000 account sign-ups this week.

     If that happens, we may break 9 million accounts this week -- and we'll definitely break that within the month.

     Looks like this could be a sustained spike.

     5,000+ new accounts are being registered hourly

     If trends remain as they are, we may break 9 million Mastodon accounts this week.

     soloojos (Mastodon Uruguay) repeated this.

     Looks like today's spike is the largest in a long time -- and this is why we're all experiencing lots of slowness and performance issues.

     Even my small instances are being affected.
