Does anyone know how these numbers compare to identi.ca / status.net?
Has everyone who has signed up for app.net used status.net and found it lacking; have people not heard of status.net or does app.net do something I don't know about?
It seems that the people who paid for app.net (myself included) are very motivated to get their money's worth. There's a group of people who seem to be posting all the time. Some have thousands of posts already.
I spent $100 to have developer access. For me it's fun to observe the community develop, and see what interesting insights I can get from the data. In my case I don't feel the money I paid is significant. The time I spend online is the real cost. I suspect it's the same for many other people there.
Every time app.net is mentioned, I see identi.ca/status.net mentioned, yet I know no one using that platform. Rather than just asking how things compare, can anyone present/offer insight into who/how many people are using identi.ca/status.net?
There is certainly overlap, but asking about comparisons or why isn't something used without providing examples as to why they should be used doesn't help those of us not wholly familiar with them.
