@satch Exactly. There is no way to estimate the total readership... Except maybe from ew0k's server logs?

Updated with a fifth chart that tries to show churn of new vs. inactive gemlogs. This is purely based on first and last posts (as of today). More accuracy could be gained by checking whether the URLs are still working.

@michaelnordmeyer Yeah, IP addresses are the only possible metric. However, since that is only knowable by each individual server, it's pretty impossible to estimate a total across Geminispace.
The idea of these estimates is just to look at the total aggregated activity and not any individual capsule's "popularity".
(For the record, Cosmos is not logging anyone's IP addresses.)

Images can be submitted to Antenna, too.
The links table isn't particularly filtered, apart from next/prev kind of navigation links that some people use. When Cosmos collects links, it has no idea whether the link target might be part of a feed.

Charting the Cosmos — Cosmos has been up and running since the start of 2022, collecting gemlog posts and other feed entries around Geminispace. I thought it would be interesting to take a closer look at the data.
