Eugen RochkoI haven't been following it very closely but looks like Mastodon's monthly active user count climbed back up to 2.1M over the last couple of weeks. Not far off from our last peak!
πΎπππππ@Gargron 2.1M must be divided by 10 to get closer to real data. I can't understand how you can include as active user someone that did one time login a month ago. My 2cc π€
Antifa Warlord@Sampei If they didn't count users that logged in a month ago then many active people would not be counted. Most users do not re-login every day and most probably stay logged in for weeks so I think counting anyone who last logged in within a month ago as active is a good way to make sure those people are counted.
@antifawarlord I'm sorry but I disagree. By "login" I mean people who have opened mastodon once in the last month without interacting. My instance now has 38 active users, actually there are 3 or 4 of us. The others are people who have never written even a "hello". To me those are not active users.
jujube@Sampei @antifawarlord It's sad, and a bit rude, to join an instance and at least not join in threads once in a while.
I did have one bad experience once though. I jumped into a thread with a reply once and was disparaged and called a rando. If you don't reply to a thread once in a while it's hard to get noticed.
