    They might be using some smoothing, because all lines are noise-free. and the last point might just be an artifact. It looks like a constant growth

      According to the graph it accounts for active users within the last 30 days. 30Days ago the reddit strike started and an influx of people started posting. I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of people haven’t been here since. There was a lot of performance and other issues with lemmy&kbin at that time.

        There is also always a flurry of people trying out accounts in multiple instances whenever there’s a migration wave, so not only are we seeing people who dipped a toe in only to leave, or go back to Reddit, but we’re seeing the effect of people understanding how the ecosystem works better and settling into a single active account.

          Yeah, I’ve been on 3 Lemmy instances and now kbin in like 3 weeks

          Finding out kbin let you block a whole instances instead of just communities was enough to warrant a new account
