That was a funny news story because I'm sure it was a case of Hanlon's razor, but had they talked to any old school fedi admin they would know that the user retention is normally between 20 and 40%.

No service has 100% user retention, and unfortunately the Mastodon software was counting each new sign up and login as a monthly active user.
