    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).

      When will the bot situation be under control?

      I’m not denying the bot situation. These posts are for record keeping, and people in this thread seem aware of the bot situation. We need to get more eyes on this.

      You’re welcome to start a conversation about how to solve the bot issue. I’d love to participate.

        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.

          Any particular website that you go to for post user activity?

          I’m seeing total user comments quadrupled in the last 2 days alone (from 800k to 4+ million).

            That’s exactly what a bot would say!

      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.

            I’m getting along fine with everyone, OP included (that got the point and Is now publishing reliable metrics), but if someone accuse me of wanting censorship just because I point out some info are misleading, you can’t expect me to say nothing about it, can you?
