New user here! Is there any way or a website that shows new users joining and lemmy instances growing? (lemmy.world)

Found that aswell but the numbers are very inaccurate I feel like. I saw some websites saying there's 1.5m lemmy accounts, others say 2.3m and this one says 300k?

Those are instances that haven't enabled captchas yet and have been raided by bots. https://lemmyverse.net/ seems to exclude bot instances using its "smart sort" but it gives you only active users.
