How many *active* SpaceHey members are there?
As much as this site likes to advertise the fact that there are 900,000 members (as of writing), how many of those are actually real? Or active? If there really were 900,000 people here, you'd expect groups on this site to have thousands of members, yet the most popular group (Rawring 20s) only has 19,000. What's going on here?
Well, the simple answer is that there are literally thousands of accounts on here that aren't active at all. Some of them are strange brand accounts that some bot or some random social media intern created, such as (https://spacehey.com/sanxnetshop) and (https://spacehey.com/profile?id=2588205). There are also accounts that were created to clog up the front page, which I wrote about (https://blog.spacehey.com/entry?id=1096735). And even still, there are accounts that were made by people who saw SpaceHey as nothing more than a gimmick, a toy to play with for a few hours before going back to TikTok or Twitter after realising they won't get an instant dopamine hit here.
It seems like an account on SpaceHey that doesn't go inactive after a few days is rare. If you're one of them, you're literally a beacon of light in a void of dead accounts.
