Number of posts visualized

Racing bar charts have become popular recently and I thought it'd be entertaining to watch something similar related to the forum. So, I collected some data and created the following videos just for fun:
number of posts, entire history until 2020-08-28, all users
number of posts, 2018-08-28 - 2020-08-28, all users
number of posts, entire history until 2020-08-28, users who posted at least once in the last two years
Remark: how many posts a user has submitted is shown in the "User statistics" section of their profile page and on the left part of their posts. However, if the "Search user's posts" link is clicked on, the result set contains a few less posts in some cases.
Numbers in these videos are based on posts that can be found with "Search user's posts".

Remark2: this very topic of mine was already submitted yesterday, but I found a few mistakes about the numbers so I rather had this topic deleted, recreated and reuploaded the videos with the correct numbers today and reopened this very topic.
Remark3: Unfortunately, still not everything is perfect. In the second video, Anton's last forum post is missing. His number is 1492 while in reality (and in the other two videos), 1493 is the correct value. I'll fix this tomorrow and replace the link above, once the correct video is uploaded to youtube.
