@zleap It means people who actually use the service.
I have opened a discussion in our Staff forum requesting that we consider deleting old, never active, not a single post in their lives accounts.
As in -- what are they good for? Contribution, imo is less than Zero, as their user addition costs some storage Bytes in the server storage. I am tired of seeing the inflated numbers, and would have regular pruning in place (common in many Forums I have been a member and staff on, all over the internet).
These inflated, unrealistic figures, are good for Ego reasons, in some cases; look how big my server is! 😜
🇳🇱
Actie users are anyone who has posted in the last 2 months. Registered is just registered.
If you'd like to register an opinion on the deleting of inactive users the thread is here where we all voice our opinions and point of view: https://discourse.qoto.org/t/clean-up-proposal-removing-old-never-active-accounts/279/8
Topic linked to is on a Restricted area, Staff only acces -- and I would like to keep it so, as the original poster.
However -- I am opening a discussion here, in public, at this post :
...and can create a public Discourse topic in a user accessible area.
The original was posted with considerations of privacy in mind, so moving the topic is unethical, imo.
But I would love to hear opinions of people who care to contribute to the open discussion threads.
I forgot to add the link -- the Topic is now open, and at the top level (as a new topic) so it gets seen more than a reply here would.
Sincere Thanks, Paul -- this is important to me.
We already have a reflection of the true number of active user accounts though.. its the "active user" count.. why would you want to strive to make the registered user count identical to the active user count reported and thus loose one piece of data entierly... what is the benefit of that? If users want to know the active user count its posted right there on the front page next to registered count.
