None of these maps can be 100% accurate, and you have to apply some criteria to create a map like this.
The map with umap involves a lot of manual work, and if you want to enter all 42,000 instances, you've got your work cut out for you.
I see maps like this more as an overview, so you can get a general idea.

@crossgolf_rebel @jaz @josh And that's fine, but woudn't it be more accurate in terms of ecosystem portrait to prioritize largeish instances instead of ignoring them while adding tons of single-user self-hosted stuff? I mean, those are also part of the ecosystem, but they inflate the number of instances for a pretty low overall quantity of users.
