    “average user posts 100 times per day" actualy just statistical error. average user posts 0 times per day. Feddi Georg, who lives in cave & posts over 10,000 each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

      That and some of the active users are also bots. Lemmit.online is a good example; that community is set up to harvest content from Reddit via RSS and then Bots post it into the community. Other users (including bots) can then cross post it to other parts of the Threadiverse. “Lemmit.Online Bot” has made 20.1k posts in 7 days.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if there are also hyperactive comment bots out there too.

      It’s still an average. The mean average precisely. The modal average is most likely zero but the median average is probably greater than zero.
