Total monthly posts exploded after Spez enshitified Reddit, and is still growing steadily month over month.

That suggests that the current decline in monthly active users is primarily because lurkers who only came to lemmy after initially hearing about it on Reddit, went back to lurking Reddit.

The number of users that are contributors is still growing, and that’s what’s important.

I mostly lurk or comment like this but I’ve found the community to be much better over here. I can’t see myself going back.

Long time lurker here, 99% of the time I go to post a comment I delete it before posting like ah fuck it. I'm trying to engage a bit more now there are more users.
