We haven\u2019t had a number report since November 2023.\u00a0 With this post we\u2019re returning to monthly reports.\u00a0 This month\u2019s report does not contain any new information regarding the mailing lists as we have changed the structure of the language segments and won\u2019t report those numbers until next month.<\/p>\n

The first number next to each item is the current total as of today; the second number is the total as of the first day of November 2023. Where one number is provided it means that there has been no change since our last report.<\/p>\n

    X (TWITTER as-was):<\/p>\n

    A few months ago the Portuguese, Spanish and Canada-EN accounts were \u00a0devolved to volunteers in Brazil, Spain and Canada.\u00a0 As a result changes to tweet frequency and format have been introduced.\u00a0 This may have had an effect on our numbers.<\/p>\n

    No concerted effort was made in the past month to increase our numbers for these accounts.\u00a0 We will have to start again or the erosion of our numbers will continue.<\/p>\n

    We experienced some decline in accounts that usually experience slow growth.\u00a0 This may be the result of trade unionists closing their Twitter accounts and moving to other platforms (such as Mastodon).<\/p>\n
