We're seeing an increase from 53k active users at the beginning of July to 72k active users at the time of this post.
According to Lemmy's documentation, an active user is "someone who has posted or commented on our instance or community within the last given time frame.” Lurkers aren't considered active users, so basically these are content creators on Lemmy.

I feel like the real headline here is that active users are about 8x what they were a month ago.
I like that lurkers are more likely to post comments here. No need to fear downvotes, hostility, or feeling like their comment is redundant.
To be fair, that is still going to happen. Everyone just needs to learn the phrase, "Don't be a dick!". ;)
