Number of (active) Lemmy users seems to stabilize and I think this is a great thing. Indeed we got a lot of users when reddit shutdown its API (I was among them despite being a long time oss user), many have left, but the community seems now to stabilize to ~ ½ of the big grow in june '23. I think this is very nice for lemmy, we can be proud of this project.

The stats come from: https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy

    I suspect abandoned alt accounts are a huge reason for the long, slow decline in user numbers. These graphs should be titled “active accounts,” not “active users.”
