Active-install trajectory

Meta Description moved down one install band, 500+ to 400+. That's a single step across the whole window, so there's no trajectory to draw. The download trend below moves daily.

7-day average daily downloads. Downloads spike for about a week after each release as the install base re-downloads, so read this as release cadence, not growth.
