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

      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’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
