Heh. Gave me a chuckle, because DAU also means "Dümmster Anzunehmender User" in German (dumbest assumed user, in context of creating idiot-proof software, and a wordplay on GAU, which means grösster anzunehmender Unfall, biggest assumed accident, which comes from fission power plants). And that kinda fits for the kind of people that perceivedly are left on the likes of Facebook and X.
