It's probably more because I don't allow telemetry and I doubt I'm alone.

Didn't see them mentioning image pulls (correct me if I'm wrong), and doubt "weekly devices" would be measured by image pulls. That is if you are talking about bazzite image in first place. So I think it is from their telemetry, so real number is probably higher. And no I don't use bazzite myself, but glad Linux is getting more popular.

You're right, they inherit and use Silverblue's countme for active user telemetry.

I think you and @StoneStar@feddit.nl are missing some context. Bazzite is an immutable image-based distro. These stats are just measuring how many people are downloading updates.
