What is considered as active ? Is someone connecting to his account and lurking considered active ? Or, someone who just up/downvote without commenting or posting ?

Users who posts or comments. I’m not sure about votes tho 🤔

Edit: its posts or comments. No lurkers. I think they should include voters to get an actual number.

programming.dev changed how active users are calculated on their instance to include voters as well as posters & commentators. It's a massive difference - programming_humor went from about 700 monthly active users to about 7000, for example.

Viewing communities from other instances from programming.dev's perspective will give a figure that includes voting activity.
