Can you please stop posting users numbers until the bot situation is under control? Putting it like you're doing is misleading, half of them are bots (if not more).
Post user activity instead? That has been suggested many times already as a far more reliable metric.
Not knowing when the bots will be under control is NOT a good reason to post misleading info, and you should know it.
The site you linked has it, first graph is "Average Lemmy Active Users by Day" (hard to miss honestly), after that there's the one you're posting.
there's also this (select active instead of total users): https://the-federation.info/platform/73
and this (check active instead of total): https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy
Are you a bot microwave?
That's exactly what a bot would say!
Lol, your user name is how I pronounced nginx for years
That's where I got the name from lol. You're literally the only person who's ever pronounced it correct ;)
What a weird way to pronounce that…
You think making the same post twice every day is a good way to keep record, rather than using more conventional methods? Honestly tired of these hype posts with deceiving numbers.
If you can't use critical thinking skills to analyze these numbers and understand bots are included, idk what to tell you bro. We can't censor the world cause of a few dumb people.
With that said user activity, number of posts, number of comments submitted per day would be a nice metric to look at.
If you don't know what misleading means, idk what to tell you "bro"
We're all bros here can we please get along?
