So, it´s been a while since I have delivered any kind of content and for the first time in 2022, I am finally back for a special delivery. What do I have to offer over here? What do I want to transmit with these posts >>/8184/ and >>/8194/? It´s about time that we tackle directly the altboorus topic and the current situation because we might be at the verge of witnessing some real competition in the near future. First of all, these charts don´t come out of nowhere, I haven´t invented them despite relying on estimations that can skew the results that are displayed. However, I will explain that margin of error later. The main source for this: Jeff Bezos and the analysis from Alexa (I could have used the data for the number of users for each booru but considering that there might be multiple and/or inactive accounts, that sample might be even less faithful than the activity on each site as a whole). Let´s just link them and explain how these numbers are converted for making these percentages with a relative method: There are 6 players to consider in this market: The mild-hard censorship/top players bloc: Derpibooru and Furbooru (because they both basically share the same staff members that aren´t going to step down anytime soon): https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/derpibooru.org https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/furbooru.org The anti censorship/opposition bloc: Twibooru, Ponybooru and Ponerpics (they were created as a consequence from Derpigate´s drama that occurred in June-August 2020, namely /mlp/ as the main source for giving birth to these projects): https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/twibooru.org https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/ponybooru.org https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/ponerpics.org Note: Bronyhub hasn´t been considered for these charts but just in case it were included at some point, presumably it would be placed in this category. The procensorship/Twitter bloc: Manebooru (a booru created as a means to replace Derpibooru whose users come from Twitter and Tumblr related sites): https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/manebooru.art Here you have the links in order to tell that the base material comes from the rankings that each one of these displayed on 10th of April 2022 and this data, just like your average market, varies daily so take this as an approximate reference for tracking the evolution.
