I think it would also be interesting to add info like "average number of posts/comments per week". But then again, maybe all these stats could be gathered by an external project, so Lemmy doesnt get more complex than it already is.

It would be interesting to eventually see mobile vs desktop, OS, region, etc, but I know analytics is (thankfully) an anti-feature here.
Those all look good to me. More meaningful that total users. I know they're different and all, but is the intention to have those all shown right next to each other? Would it make sense maybe to just pick one?
Yeah, I'm not sure which one to pick to show on the actual front end tho. Maybe users / month?
That makes the most sense to me. A community may get a spike in users one day, but users / month would give a more accurate overview.
users / month is ok to me
Would be probably good to model it after what https://the-federation.info/lemmy is asking for, so that it can easily be exposed on the API for them.
