Hey there everyone! I have a possibly noobish question about the number of active users.
I’ve been watching the stats on occasion and lately, I’ve noticed that Lemmy’s number of active users has been decreasing. (for the last month at least).
While the number has been on an upward trend for the last 6 months
Last month’s stats have been less than rosy.
So could anyone explain how this might affect Lemmy? I think I’ve read before that only people who post or comment count as active users, but seeing it go down is kinda alarming. So am I right in thinking that Lemmy has been losing active users since July 11 or am I missing something?
It would be interesting to see numbers from the Digg to Reddit migration. There was a lot of pushback initially. Reddit was “confusing” and “ugly”. I used both for a while but didn’t fully abandon Digg for at least a few months.
Lemmy on the other hand, Reddit made it very easy for me. I’ve been using Sync since at least 2014. Once it went dark I was full Lemmy.
