Comment on 600 more active users in the last few days, from 47225 to 42827 in two days
iso@lemy.lol 3 months agoMore realistic than mainstream social media platforms. On Lemmy, the number of active users is measured by posts, comments and votes.

I think that’s a mistake, but also the point is that saying users when you mean accounts is lying to yourself. Users here have multiple accounts, I have 7.

Yes, almost almost all of us have more than one account, but not everyone uses more than one account at the same time. I think these numbers are correct. There should be a margin of deviation of at most 10%.

Over 6 months and over a month, I think most users with multiple accounts use their accounts at least once to post, comment, or vote. So it wouldn’t surprise me if active users to active accounts was 1:2
