we will not do anything silly like saying that you cant use our open model if your service has more than 700 million monthly active users.we want everyone to use it!— Sam Altman (@sama) March 31, 2025

Here’s a metric that I bet you aren’t using… I want you to check it out, and start using it. It could be a real wake up call about how inactive your users are. I’m talking about the XD28 metric. A lot of teams have never bothered to collect this data - but you can get started after 28 days. Here’s how the metric works👇 This metric looks at a user and determines how many days they used your product/feature in a 28 day cycle. If your user used your product just once in the last 28 days, they’re identified as 1D28. If they use it 5 days out of 28, they’re categorized as 5D28 and so on… Then you create a bucket with each number of days and how many users used the product for each number of days. For example, 17 users belong in the 5D28 bucket and 500 users belong in the 24D28 bucket. You can use this to create a distribution chart. You should be using these figures to calculate the average AND median number of days that users are using the product in a given 28 day cycle. Ideally you want people to be moving from a lower number of days to a higher number. E.g. If your average number of XD28 is 5 days, you want to aim for 15 days in a year’s time. This is an interesting metric because often you will find users at one extreme of this distribution curve. And it can be a real wake up call for Product Managers. | 17 comments on LinkedIn

Cloudflare’s 2025 Annual Founders’ Letter
Cloudflare launched 15 years ago this week. We like to celebrate our birthday by launching new products that give back to the Internet, which will do a lot of this week. But on this occasion we've also been thinking a lot about what's changed on the Internet and what has not.

"The end result of all of this is that we grew from 2k users to almost 150k, added a ton of heavy new functionality, and still managed to optimize and cut down costs from $.15 per active user per month to just $.03 or so." - @snarfed.org breaks down all the work he's done to optimize Bridgy Fed 1/

blog.anew.socialEven as @wsocial.eu onboards more and more users, they can’t seem to get them to talk to each other 🤐 This atrocious engagement rate (~9%) for users on the W PDS has been steady as a rock since day 1 (here you can see it in the daily totals and percentages). #WhosThereSocial

How is this possible? #WSocial hosts 26k accounts but only 5.4k have provided ID verification (and thus can post). Of those, only 2450 people (as of this AM) have EVER published a SINGLE post or reply. By comparison, on Eurosky (26k accounts) EVERYONE can post. No ID required #WSocialPics
If you're building apps for the social web, this survey report by Incogni is really worth a read. People are quietly withdrawing from active participation in social media. blog.incogni.com/digital-fatigue-and-burnout/ Extracts in the thread 🧶 👇
