This is great and shows the whole picture better. I’ve seen people concerned about the drop off in daily users, but a look at the posts and comments per day seems encouraging!
I’m of the mindset, like others, that this place doesn’t need to be Reddit-big to be good, and in fact would be better off not that big. However I would definitely like to see smaller communities grow and see more posts and post variety overall, which more numbers will obviously help.
Important to remember that Lemmy only counts posting and commenting as "Active Users", not voting. So you'll have many users moving over who were primarily lurkers who maybe made a comment or two on Lemmy just when they switched and have now gone on to lurk here.
So, knowing this, what can we conclude from these graphs? It looks like posts and comments are going up but active users are going down. Does this mean that the posters are posting more individually? Enough to offset the drop in active users?
Many people also signed up at multiple instances and have landed on a "home" one now. I have accounts I don't use any more that would look like a drop in activity.
Yeah I do hope active users base does start to go up again at some point. Maybe once winter is upon the northern hemisphere and people are cooped up inside.
But Lemmy has been having some rough growing pains lately. I just hope the issues doesn't condemn it's future success.
Thanks for this. exactly what I was looking for.
Can we use Fediverse instead of threadiverse since Zuck took threadiverse? I know it was a thing, but he ruined it.
