npub1ls2tz9j97jhww48u92797nhxxw7g4509sjdrq0g394pmww4wcx0sla8x9m (npub1ls2…8x9m) Per this link, it seems that #mastodon #newusercount WAS counting new #lemmy accts, but most were invalid.

In sum, the 3,000 #newusers per hour seems to have been vastly inflated. Who knows if current levels of 300 per hour are accurate.
I've scrolled down a bit, and this is the best explanation I found, but am personally completely ignorant.
In any case, I demand a full refund from the bot developer for every cent I have paid for this service. :)
