Is it speed? Features? Ease of development? Just curious why lemmy is seeing more activity as opposed to other networks.

    The active users graph doesn’t match the users or posts graph. How can it show matching active users when the users and posts are both increasing dramatically compared to kbin? Something seems off with the active users metric.

      I think it’s we’ll known Lemmy has a problem with bots signing up (in their millions), hence the warning on that measure in my link above.

      If we look at another site:
      https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/dailystats
      https://kbin.fediverse.observer/dailystats
      Basically the same stats.
      These seem to suggest 120 posts per day per Lemmy user - I’d agree something is off.

      But then try looking at a few users in this thread (which lets note is on a Lemmy instance). From my spot checks about half the comments are from kbin users?

      I checked my own server on there, 3 active users, but it only reports 1. It’s better than nothing, but they’re doing something to make it show less than lemmy. None of my users are bots.
