Hey there everyone! I have a possibly noobish question about the number of active users.

I’ve been watching the stats on occasion and lately, I’ve noticed that Lemmy’s number of active users has been decreasing. (for the last month at least).

While the number has been on an upward trend for the last 6 months

Last month’s stats have been less than rosy.

So could anyone explain how this might affect Lemmy? I think I’ve read before that only people who post or comment count as active users, but seeing it go down is kinda alarming. So am I right in thinking that Lemmy has been losing active users since July 11 or am I missing something?
