That's crazy! User/month goes from only 7.5k active to 27.8k. And that's just people voting. What about people who only read a post?

Dont have access to those stats in the database so adding on voting is the best I can do

Theres a post read table but its only people who have explicitly marked something as read and is way less than the post likes

Do posts get marked as read when you read the comments? There's the x new comments feature, so something must be storing that timestamp.

I dug through the code and turns out the post read table does store when its read (with number of comments when it was read stored in a person post aggregates table), it just only stores it for people from your instance so I cant get accurate numbers from all of lemmy (and why it seemed like there was a low amount)
