    How are “active users” defined? Because there’s not a single community on the Active User Growth list that got more than 10 posts PER WEEK - that doesn’t look very active to be honest…

      “active users” are defined by lemmy: posts + comments + votes

      The bot is trying to catch upwards trend in the amount of active users. This tends to be communities that were dead or fairly dead, and then one or two posts got some engagement and spiked the number up.

      In terms of absolute active numbers, there’s no need for a bot because lemmy can tell you that. The bigger communities tend to swing up and down in terms of activity (cancelling themselves out).

      For example, [email protected] had 65 posts this week, but active users ended up pretty much where it was. The table below has 28 entries as the crawler at lemmyverse usually reports 4 times a day, so it’s for about 7 days:
