Someone needs to connect to make it 3300 

 So you’re saying it’s not really only 40 people on nostr 

 Feels like it sometimes.

 Making 35k seem a bit doubtful 

Maybe 12k

 This feels like a good way to measure concurrent users of a given app. Assuming the vast majority of Damus users keep the damus relay in their defaults. Bot’s would more likely connect, push content, not pull much, and drop the connection.

I wonder if we had a way of calculating concurrent connections to the big relays per unique npub. That’d give us a realtime sense of the ebb and flow of the network… we probably don’t want to collect and unify that data, but it’d be interesting.  

 Vast majority of all clients connect to damus by default from what I've seen 

 Soon 329,999,999 ;). 

 Do you use your own software or Strfry? Or a fork? 

 strfry with @Alex Gleason 🐍🚬 ‘s deno filter scripts 

 Awesome. Is it only one instance? Glad to know mine can handle the workloads you’re facing 😅 

 in really only limited by bandwidth, strfry is a beast and cpu doesn’t break a sweat. 

 What’s the ATH? 

 As of the past hour or so:

$ curl -s https://damus.io/stats/connections.txt  | awk '{ print $2 }' | sort -n | tail -n1

3621 

 

$2 > maxx {maxx = $2} END {print maxx}
