Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
Wongcharoenbhorn proves that this sequence is infinite and gives an infinite product for its density; its value is about 0.313992945491, so a(n) ~ kn with k around 3.18478492705. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Dec 11 2022
