This seems like very important information worth sharing in general but also wherever these stats are posted including in the software itself (via (?) or tooltip).
It also means that the real number of active users, which includes lurkers, is actually higher.
I still think the majority of registered users are bots though. I don't think we have actually have 2,000,000 people on here.
What's a good estimate of lurkers? 10% of actives? 200% of actives?
I'm a little bit of a lurker yes. I comment when I think I can add something to the discussion, but I usually like to read more than I contribute unfortunately.
No one is in disagreement that bots are the majority of registered users.
