📈 The new social web has reached its next milestone: For the first time, the #Fediverse has over 4,000,000 users! 📈
Today, the counter at https://the-federation.info/ shows 4,003,742 users in the Fediverse, out of which 2,761,886 users are on #Mastodon, 762,367 on #diaspora, and 249,904 on #Prosody. Fast growing projects are #Peertube (69,954) that more than tripled and #Pixelfed (25,206) that almost doubled the number of users in the last year.
@Dr. Gerald Leppert :verified:
'Grassroots journals' reminds of 'PCI' (https://peercommunityin.org/how-does-it-work-2/), which seems to developed the concept further...
Now we need to see PCI adopt the fediverse.
@education I know PCI. They do great work, but their system does not break the power of the publishers.
PCI only review pre-prints (which is just a small part of the submitted papers) and these papers are still send to journals to assess their importance.
Grassroots reviews are made after publication. That has the advantage that then the studies are understood much better and can be reviewed by people who worked with it.
