Those are number of people who have installed it, not number of people who use 
it, correct?

> BTW Out of curiosity, how many users you think we have in total?

Around 20k users who connected to the update server at least once in the last 6 
months. This number overstates the number of users as for example I am counting 
for about 20 entries here; every single computer / VM on which I have installed 
Subsurface in the last 6 months shows up... but realistically, most NORMAL 
people have Subsurface on one or two devices, so I'm guessing this means we 
have more than 15k users.

Around 3k users who connected to the cloud server in the last 90 days.
Almost exactly 5k verified cloud storage accounts.
