While this may indeed be a fitting translation in some contexts, it certainly isn’t in all ones. I think you should better clarify what exactly DAU means and when it can be used.

This is more of an "idiot". Everybody has been a noob at the beginning, but DAUs will stay DAUs forever. ;)

DAU translates to "the stupidest user one can imagine".

It is a word play on "GAU", which is a nuclear engineering abbreviation for "Größter Anzunehmender Unfall" (equivalent to DBA, design basis accident)... and it comes with all the offense potential of calling somebody dumm (stupid).
