For Kepler main-sequence F, G, and K dwarfs, the photometric activity index Sph shows a spectral-type-dependent relation with Rossby number, including a dip near Ro/Ro_sun ~0.3 for G and K dwarfs.

abstract
Reinhold et al. (Science, 1 May 2020, p. 518) provided two possible interpretations of measurements showing that the Sun is less active than other solar-like stars. We argue that one of those interpretations anticipates the observed differences between the properties of their two stellar samples. This suggests that solar-like stars become permanently less variable beyond a specific evolutionary phase.

Magnetic activity evolution of solar-like stars: II. $S_{\rm ph}$-Ro evolution of Kepler main-sequence targets
For Kepler main-sequence F, G, and K dwarfs, the photometric activity index Sph shows a spectral-type-dependent relation with Rossby number, including a dip near Ro/Ro_sun ~0.3 for G and K dwarfs.
