Instead, it tracks daily active uniques (DAUq) and weekly active uniques (WAUq). These metrics count both logged-in users and logged-out identifiable visitors, which gives a more realistic picture of how many people actually show up, not just how many accounts are active. DAUq reflects day-to-day engagement, while WAUq captures the broader group that checks in at least once a week.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What about Reddit\u2019s monthly active users (MAUs)?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Reddit does not publish a formal monthly active users metric for logged-in accounts. Any MAU figure you see comes from external estimates or derived models.<\/p>\n<p>Since we have WAUq, a common approach is to estimate MAU using WAUq \u00d7 4 (as a rough baseline). That gives us a rough estimate of 1.97 billion monthly active users.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Reddit user growth over time<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reddit\u2019s DAUq has risen from around 55 million in early 2021 to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">130.3 million by Q2 2026<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, more than doubling in five years.
