   @voron @mmasnick For me the experience is the opposite, that activity is growing steadily. Of course it could also just be that I have found more active people to follow over time.

     @mmasnick I’m relatively new here, but, the premise that there was a lot of activity & now it’s faded fits my experience.
     I built 6 lists have a huge follow list
     It’s pretty dead these days compared to a month ago
     Of course 👆 it’s just anecdotal but that’s what I’m experiencing

     This seems like incredibly lazy reporting. Yes, there was a flood of new signups, and not all of them became regular users. But look at the growth of actual usage and posts of the Fediverse, and it continues to go up.

     I've seen a few articles with this framing lately, and it's just so lazily misleading.
