Um yeah, I'm not seeing that. You can see monthly active users on https://the-federation.info/platform/21 and it's been fluctuating up and down, no big jump. So I call bullshit on that article based on the metric there. Though no doubt as Twitter (X) implodes Mastodon will see the fallout with higher activity.
