Peak Online: 37,185,128

Date: 2026-05-19

A new record has been reached. And I feel like Saubnatica 2 and Forza Horizon 6 are partially responsible for this new peak. I don’t see anyone talking or posting about this new logged in users of Steam.

EDIT: Today it just got a new record again! A few hours after I posted this post, lol. To me stats and numbers are interesting. New numbers:

      No, it’s just not exciting or worth talking about every day.

      Then don’t talk about it and let people talk if they wish.

      Do you go into work or school every day and pronounce that population of the world went up again?

      No, because I do not care about that.

      Steam is free and doesn’t cost money, that logic doesn’t work the same.

      As said, other stores are free to install and yet they do not grow like Steam. Also people die every day and you assume that no one leaves or stops using Steam.

      I will post and talk about new peaks and its interesting what discussions this brings up sometimes. Even this our very discussion how useful or useless it is is interesting to me. No one forces you to talk about subject you don’t care.

          You mean exactly why this hasn’t been brought up until now by you?

          You just took my quote out of context. I said I do not care bout the school or day population you said earlier. Here the full quote in context:

          Do you go into work or school every day and pronounce that population of the world went up again?

          No, because I do not care about that.

          What do you mean by:

          You seemed surprised people weren’t talking about, you have your answer now. You answered it yourself.

          ??? What did I answer? I’m surprised no one brought this new peak of concurrent users up. Usually people are quick to bring it up. That happened in the past often.

          People just don’t care, for reasons stated above, you’re free to do what you want.

          You don’t care. I do. Some people care, some don’t. If you don’t care, why do you even reply and discuss here? If you don’t care, just move on. I like talking about new high peak numbers. Block me.

              You do not provide any alternative or useful perspective. You just say its not worth talking about this, because you do not care. Which in fact means I should stop talking. And yet, you still talk about it. Looks like this post was more useful than you initially admit it.

                  You’re pretty angry about someone providing an opinion and reasoning dude.

                  Just because I disagree with you does not make me angry. Or are you angry because I do not agree and assume others are the same? No need for personal attacks. I don’t know why you think I’m angry. The entire time you tried to tell me how useless it is to talk about this, and if I go to school or work and tell everyone about the population every day. Which is clearly a misrepresentation of what my post is, because 1. its not every day, 2. its a highscore peak of a subject we care
