 How many snowflakes are there registered right now and happy to serve
 censored users?

 Right now there's a big difference between 0 and 1, and it's not easy to
 figure out which it is.

 Knowing this number would help me as a snowflake volunteer decide whether
 I am needed, and whether to do advocacy at this moment to get other people
 to be snowflakes.

 Knowing this number would help the censored users too, because it would
 give them a sense of the health of the snowflake population, and also it
 can help them debug their "it's not working, I wonder if I can narrow down
 some possible problems" situations.
