Sudden increase in the number of players?

Hi,

This is a lichess-related question, but probably not suitable for the site Q&A, so I post here.

It seems to me that there has been an increase in the number of players over the next week or so. In the evening, CET/CEST, there was about 11k players (this was the daily peak), and yesterday almost 15k. Also, now, at 6 a.m. CEST, there are almost 11k players, while there were surely much less players before (maybe 5 or 6k).

Did you notice the same sudden increase? If so, what is the reason? A fix in the player count? A big advertisement somewhere? Problems on competitor website?
Wow!!! I never noticed.
Normally only 600 people online max now at the moment it is just over 13 000
Normally 600? What are you talking about?
I think even the daily minimum was higher than that. We were getting up to 12000 at 'peak hour' (~9-10pm CET) before this change.
They changed the way they count people taking part...
