Hi, I have a small Chrome extension (tab suspender, ~200 organic installs over 2.5 months). In the last 4 days my weekly users went from 200 → 520 → 999 → 1,511. Meanwhile my installs chart still shows 5-8 per day, page views are normal, impressions are normal. Nothing changed in any other metric — just weekly users.

I haven't done any advertising, no new traffic sources appeared in Google Analytics, and ChromeOS went from ~10% to 27% of my user base around the same time.

Is this a known dashboard issue? Batch recomputation lag? Org force-installs that don't show in the installs chart? Something else entirely?

Any insight would be appreciated, I can't find documentation on how weekly users are actually counted.
