It's still tiny numbers in the scheme of things, but also quite a big number for a site that had ~30 users this time last month.

For 30k monthly users some magazines that seem to be popular for most people (gaming, pcgaming) seem awfully dead

Too much focus on Reddit drama threads and not enough on actual content (I am guilty of this too). I think as the drama passes it will liven up in the popular topics/magazines. Reddit needs to stop pulling the trigger on their foot gun first.

That's to be expected. Mastodon was dominated by Twitter discussions for quite a while before it tailed off

That’s a very fair point

And Hot & Active algorithms being broken. And the feeds being flooded with New while you’re trying to browse (unless you’re on an app). v0.18 can’t come soon enough lol.

That happened with digg back in the day. It will go away.

The vast majority of users on an aggregation site like this are just lurkers. Like, the vast, vast majority. Scroll, read, updoot, move on.

The 90/9/1 rule. 90% lurk, 9% comment, 1% post.

tbf, there are more active communities that people might be going to on other instances

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Well post something then lol. The individual communities on each instance may seem small but the posts should still be visible on all the federated sites in the verse.
