While defederation is an issue I don't think that's the issue we're seeing now. I think there is an initial excitement and people are posting a lot, but not getting the community they're used to, so they're posting less. We're getting more general interest posts now.

But I'm still here doing my part trying to build the community.

I think it's definitely more niche. I don't know though, it's not a bad thing. On Reddit, I always felt that, by the time I saw a post, it was too late to weigh in. On Lemmy, I am a lot less inhibited about randomly commenting.
