I made this post today, https://www.reddit.com/r/BuyFromEU/comments/1quso40/comment/o3evucz/ It got 150k+ views, piefed.social etc. has seen a big spike in users.

If possible I want to copy-paste that recipe in r/BuyCanadian tomorrow to get more Canadians onboard here. But I need a nice image of a graph for the post to work.

Anyone know where I can get a graph like that? Admins?

    As in active users each day? I don’t have that query written but if I remember I’ll look in the next couple days

      Yea these graphs won’t really work for making a good reddit post.

      If and when I can find one I’ll make a post, which should hopefully add a few hundred more users here

          Here’s the number of monthly active users, which might look more impressive to people who obsess over the Y axis:

          Monthly active users of piefed.ca per day

          It’s not super pretty as I just threw it together and really should be doing other things. But it’s colour matching the Canadian flag, which I hope is appreciated. :)

          I guess a key takeaway is that the number of active users at Piefed.ca multiplied by more than five since late January.

          mau <- c(109, 114, 114, 114, 120, 123, 370, 502, 569, 588, 602, 611, 613)  
          Date <- as.Date(as.Date("2026-01-24"):as.Date("2026-02-05"))  
          plot(Date, mau, type="l", ylab="Monthly active users", lwd="2", main="Monthly active users of piefed.ca",  
               col="#D80621", xaxs="i", ylim=c(0,613))  
          grid()
