Post user activity instead? That has been suggested many times already as a far more reliable metric.

Not knowing when the bots will be under control is NOT a good reason to post misleading info, and you should know it.

Any particular website that you go to for post user activity?

I'm seeing total user comments quadrupled in the last 2 days alone (from 800k to 4+ million).

The site you linked has it, first graph is "Average Lemmy Active Users by Day" (hard to miss honestly), after that there's the one you're posting.

there's also this (select active instead of total users): https://the-federation.info/platform/73

and this (check active instead of total): https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy
