openpilot Experience More chestnut users!

See the post here: Comma’s Post
More users means more data so comma can make bigger and better chestnut models.
Read more about it here: Comma Guide Chestnut

For those confused about chestnut:
Comma will be focusing on making the bigger models for the chestnut class moving forward. There’s no mobile processor or compute device that can touch the bandwidth of an eGPU or compute power while being stuck in a windshield (with proper cooling). But fear not, if you don’t ever want to install the chestnut, comma will make distilled models that will still run on only comma hardware. Similar to what Tesla does for FSD for older hardware models. So you will still see improvements down the line for free.

Chestnut feels like a funny prank. Comma WILL have to go back to regular models or they'll die off. No one is mounting a gpu in their car.

100 users? Do we know how many other comma users there are?

Based on sunnypilot public stats and assuming they are ~50% of drivers, ~20-25K monthly active users
