Well, according to data from https://the-federation.info, 26.8% of Fediverse user accounts have commented or posted something in the last month. I'm not sure if I completely trust this wide-reaching dataset but it's something. Lemmy overall at its peak had 18.5% until a flood of bot accounts with no activity appeared on some open-signup servers, now it's at 3%.
Lemmy.world is sitting at 27% active user ratio, beehaw.org at 34.7%, lemmy.ca at 32.3%, lemmy.ml at 12%, sh.itjust.works at 19.2%
Just look at the ratio on this post for a gold confirmation of those numbers. 300+ comments and 1400+ upvotes. That a decent interaction ratio.
Even just upvoting is still participation as well. Wiki is different.
Absolutely. I get how Lemmy counts an account as active, I'm just not sure how other Fediverse services count active accounts, whether just "boosting" another post is enough for example.
