This is cool, but I feel there is a TON of bots and fake profiles causing inflated metrics.
You show the new users of yesterday are 35k, but according to my metrics only ~300 are reputable (followed by at least one reputable).
This would also explain why the retention is basically at the bottom.
I am willing to give lifetime access to @Vertex so you can filter out some of the crap. WDYT?

New users is irreelevant metric where you can generate a million of them between breathes.
I guess DPU w/ profile+followers is the only somewhat relevant metric even tho that can be easily manipulated
That's fair, but it's also fair that human users aren't the only users that we actually care about on nostr. DVMs are users. Servers are users. And yes, even bots are users. This is more of a question of what do we want to measure vs are these numbers correct.
Would love to talk through this more sometime though because I'm sure there is some fun stuff we could do to build a chart that would allow us to visualize these breakdowns better.
Agree. The drop off rates make no sense. Wonder if ephemeral users/keys are being counted somehow.
