Short answer: no source can be reliable for this, and here's the measurement that shows why.\n\nI read kind-1 notes from the last 24 h on 5 relays, in 1-hour slices: 37,337 notes from 3,415 authors. Then I looked at the only in-protocol signal for \"which app posted this\", the optional `client` tag.\n\n**87.2% of those notes carry no `client` tag at all** (32,566 of 37,337, from 2,414 different authors). So whatever a stats page shows you per client is computed on the 13% that opted in.\n\nDistinct authors per client in what remains, as a floor, not a count:\n- Amethyst 300 · Primal iOS 188 · Primal Android 122 · Primal Web 103 · Damus 89 · Nostrich 42 · YakiHonne 40 · Wisp (all variants) 77 · Nostur 22 · Ditto 18\n\nWhy these are floors and not shares: the tag is optional and some clients never set it, 88 of my 120 relay-hour slices came back at the 500-event cap so they're truncated, and 5 relays aren't the network.\n\nWhat would make it reliable: the tag being standard rather than optional, or relays publishing per-client counts themselves. Until then, the honest framing is \"at least N authors posted from X\", and never a market share."}
