Lemmy world was growing at a decent pace leading up to July 1st, then had a big influx following the API deadline. However the last week in particular has seen a decline.
Engagement still appears to be the same, although a little lower than the start of the month. A few of the other instances i have been checking follow a similar pattern.
Do you think we will continue growing at a steady pace, or do we need another big trigger to get users to migrate? For Mastodon, it seems there’s a big trigger every other week to drive users away from Twitter, but with Reddit, the revolt seems to have quietened down considerably.
It could be far worse. But, its not that bad yet.
Yea, I don’t want to sound like I’m arguing here, but there is a generally negative vibe that is being replicated here on lemmy as it was on reddit:

Perhaps that is why our experiences differ- I only look at my subscribed communities.

Yep, I got downvoted for suggesting that vandalizing the car was not a good plan…
Edit: I think you’re actually talking about a different thread. Lemmy needs therapy.
