@darnell For what it's worth: here is my argument with respect to including Threads in Fediverse numbers: we should only include the number of Threads users who have turned on ActivityPub integration (seems to be something like 50k, https://fediversereport.com/why-is-meta-adding-fediverse-interoperability-to-threads/ , which is incidentally about the same number of Fediverse users who have bridge dtheir accounts to atproto/atmopshere/bluesky via bridgy). Because: let's think about Google accounts. Some of them have direct access to "the SMTP network" via gmail. We should count those as email users. But there are also lots of Google accounts that do *not* have associated gmail address. Those have no connection to "the SMTP network", and we should not count them as "email users", at least not as "google email users". Same thing with Threads users and ActivityPub.
