I was curious how the activity stats on the sidebar are calculated. I was looking through the GitHub, but I’m not familiar with Rust, so I was having trouble parsing everything.
Would anyone be able to point me to the relevant section on github?
Could someone help me figure out how the activity stats on the sidebar are calculated?

You mean the community sidebar? I am pretty sure it is “how many users interacted”, meaning posting, commenting, up voting, or downvoting. I one created a new community and had one post with 68 upvotes, and the sidebar showed “69 per day”.
However what surprised me, 1 minute after I created the community it also said “49 subscribers”. Wonder if those are bots or something…
