Just say 40,000. Which is a pathetic number, but perfectly fine for the type of niche communities budding up here and there across all the domains connected together here.
40k users is huge. Remember, lemmy is not profit driven. We don't need to grow at all costs, we can grow naturally and sustainably.
40000 is enough to be a functioning social media. most fediverse softwares don't have that much. Sure, it is not enough to have discussions over non mainstream stuff, but there are still enough people for a variety of topics.
