Does it matter if Lemmy is losing users? I haven’t noticed my feeds losing active users even if it’s down across the fediverse. Besides they’ll be back the next time Reddit has another unpopular decision which should take about another 3 months
I think it’s hard to maintain a critical mass in an anonymous social media/aggregator. You need enough fresh content to satisfy users, and you need enough users to provide that user driven content.
If you’re only in the popular Lemmy channels then you probably wouldn’t notice the users leaving, but the small communities are the first to go.
Exactly. I would never have guessed Lemmy is losing users if every other meme wasn’t about it. Stuff still seems just as lively now as it was a couple months ago.
