Makes me wonder just how many are active users

MAU means "monthly active users". As you can see, the ratio MAU/users is not higher for Mastodon than it is for Lemmy.

Uhh am I missing something? Linked page says Mastodon has 1 million mau, while for lemmy it says just below 40 000 mau?

They were talking about MAU Vs Users, which is similar (mastodon has like x 40 in each)

For me, Mastodon was not very user friendly. I still jump on it every now and then but I'm still not comfortable with it yet.

Out of curiosity, what were some things you found hard to get used to about Mastodon?

For me, Mastodon was actually quite nice once I started following hashtags.

For me, Mastodon is a great metal band.

Wait, you can do that? Is it possible on the app?
