How many quadruplets do you think are on Lemmy?

Triplets are about 1 in 1000 births.

Don’t know until I ask.

[-] Paradachshund@lemmy.today 11 points 1 week ago

No, don't you see?? Statistics are against you! That means you shouldn't even try.

It doesn't really apply here, but depending on how long the odds are, unironically yes. I believe in OP, they're worth more than vein hopes.

Hmm, so I'd guess maybe there's a triplet on Lemmy? That's actually a lot more common than I would have guessed.

Going by the numbers, there are probably a few triplets on Lemmy, but don’t expect any quads until we get to about 200k monthly actives.

Are we there yet? Just checking.

I think it’s about 50k monthly actives across all servers, excluding lurkers.

Wow, I feel like I run into more familiar users than 50k would suggest. Like I'm pretty sure I've seen you around.

Great question, I’m curious about this too. There was a set of triplets in my high school class, and I’m curious what they’re up to these days. They were pretty awesome, got along with all the different cliques, and were super friendly to everyone. They were fiercely protective of each other and really close.

I don't generally talk about the twins...
