Just a member here, but given the recent rapid growth in the past 10 days as folks migrate over from a 600k subreddit (myself included), and the normal 90% lurker rule-of-thumb, this is actually a fairly reasonable monthly active user ratio.
I genuinely understand the concern to avoid bots and trolls, but have admins in other instances actually documented a significant number of bots originating through this instance?
There is some Verified Suspicious Activity^TM^. We're hoping to get it sorted out soon.
Thank you for your care of this place, and due diligence.
With the instance growing so quickly, aggregate stats can flag but are vulnerable to aliasing.
I very much appreciate the path to lemmy membership that you offered to us in the final hours before many of the subreddits went dark.
The there is a ratcheting chain of new members to this and other Lemmy instances is still happening. I have the sense that there’s still a lot of private chat on Reddit as folks looking for a new place to be are enquiring of those who’ve already migrated.
All to say, when it is sorted, it would be great to have an updated sticky with the details so those of us here can support the less tech adept among us make the transition.
You have a point, especially as lemmy defines "active" as a user that has at least posted once within the relevant time period. So yes, lurkers definitely wouldn't count toward the active user count (mastodon and the like use different metrics AFAIU).
‘Posted’ is even a higher bar than ‘commented’, a 10th of a 10th.
Not to say that there isn’t a need to filter out sockpuppets and bots at signup, but rather that the inference being made from the stats was not obvious.
Yea I'm unclear on whether commenting counts as being active. I would guess that it does.
