Similar to Mastodon’s spikes last year, it seems. Anyways, there is data to think about. Source

    There’s also people that create multiple accounts in different instances and end up using just one.

      I did this. I didn’t initially realize there is such a thing as instances (I thought I was joining Lemmy). Came from Reddit so didn’t expect this. Now I only use my Lemmy.world account, the other one is doing nothing (should probably get around deleting it at some point).

    As a lurker I mostly just vote. But gotta post every once in a while to add to active users stat!

    Some dropoff after initial hype is normal. Now we just continue as usual until reddit pisses people off again.

    Lemmy needs a middle logical layer to really take off. If a local server moderats it as such, the default view for say /c/technology shouldn’t be slit across a dozen instances. Instead it should be merged into one view.

    Without it you have a bunch of largely stagnant communities.

      Well, then go to a nice community, perhaps even a different instance.

          No, i actually meant to be constructive. Nevermind

          I just wanted to point out that we have choice. Though it seems redundant, because everyone who end up on Lemmy should know that

        :) I erased any evidence of any misspelling that may or may not have taken place here tonight.

    quality over quantity: trash users can find their way out

    That decline is slower than I expected. It shows that more people stay than not

    “Chart go down” isn’t necessarily bad.

    For example, this could be due to general disinterest, or it could be from troll removal/defederation too, no?
