~~Most are bots though
Many instances have over 40k total users but only 10 people or so active
I think about 250k is the number of real people (still very impressive)~~
That's why the post used active users as a metric. From 3000 to 50000 is still quite a leap. I am actually not necessarily looking forward to 100millions users. A few thousands interesting/ed people in a given community is way more than enough.
