A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I too am curious how this number is generated. For an instance of 125k users, the interactions seem quite low. "Top" items are at the top of the list with 500-1000 upvotes... and only ~100 comments.
I would kind of expect a bit more.
1 9 90 rule applies quite well, only a limited number of users ever interact with anything at all, and no one interacts with everything.
Okay... Let's take that 1 9 90 rule... 1% creators 9% interactors and 90% lurkers. So at 800 upvotes which is the upper end of the "Top" threads... we're expecting 8000 users. Not 125k.
It still doesn't line up.
Yup, I made a mistake, the real amount is 23k, you can see the edit in the post.
Well... I can't yet, since the edit hasn't federated it's way out to my instance yet... But I see it on the origin instance, so fair enough. 23k is much more believable and reasonable though. 125k just didn't sit right in my head for what I was seeing on the instance.
