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 ?
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.

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.

Was going to comment about it, then saw it was you ha ha.
Glad that my votes are getting counted
Definitely would be a more accurate representation of “active” IMO
