And loads of people hear the buzz, try it out and leave when they grow bored. I think the reason for the downward spike not being worse is that the threshold to take part in Lemmy communities is higher than many social media sites, and invested time registering makes people more likely to stay.
Just to chime in, please correct me if I’m wrong, but Lemmy only counts activity as someone who’s posting or commenting (citation needed), so as more people go back to their old ways of lurking, activity will drop as browsing isn’t counted as activity
Us lurkers are still here (hopefully) but it's easy to go back to the ways of scrolling without engaging
That is true.
That's correct on the active users, as more people go back to lurking it will show less users but good chance they just don't post much now
