This video is from August. Doesn't reddit still have millions of users? There's still bots copying content from there onto the fediverse and the number of active users on the threadiverse is dropping. 40k or so? That's a drop in the bucket.

It doesn't feel to me like anything changed besides there being more lemmy users.

Naa lemmy is growing, and I'm actually starting to see the opposite. Shit from here being copied to Reddit. Only have witnessed it a few times but it was odd seeing it be the reverse.

The monthly active users dropped significantly (probably expected) and december has seen a slight upwards trend. Hopefully that continues.

That's a pleasant surprise! 👍

The data I saw yesterday shows a marked improvement for active users in the last couple weeks. We're organically steadily growing again, I think.
