So. How many active users?
And how many have left after pushing just one thing (whatever it means)?

(edit) Re-read my comment and it comes across as dismissive. I didn't mean that. What you got in terms of raw numbers is impressive, but since 90% of your traffic came from Reddit, I'd show very cautious optimism. Reddit crowd is easily excitable and it tends to be supportive for the sake of being supportive. They are the do-gooders and this translates into overly positive skewed feedback. Try and not get carried away here. Having a lot of foot traffic is great. As you correctly pointed out, it created a positive feedback loop and helps self-propel the promotion. But it's really of little value if no ones sticks around. I don't know your active/return user counts, but judging by 25k/15k ratio it's probably not mind-blowing, in which case you should use your current momentum to try and fine-tune the details. In fact, you must. Engage the visitors better and make them stick. The launch splash is a one-time event and the level of attention you got so far will be very hard to replicate.
- Guzba 14y agoI agree with your assessment that active users is the only count that really matters. I haven't actually got the numbers myself but I watch the split between users and things pushed and it is growing wider every day. This is my proxy right now. I haven't messed with weekly active users, for example, because my sample space of time is so small I couldn't really make any statements. The other thing I take as a good sign is that the number of registered devices has officially overtaken the number of registered users, meaning people have taken the time to register more than one device more often than not even registering one.
