Per the title, is Lemmy actually growing, or will it stagnate and fade into obscurity like many other similar discussion boards?

When you sort by monthly active users, this is what you get:

What really jumps out to me is the fact .ml's active users equals the total users. Not too sure what to make of it. I'd assume the mod's delete nonactive accounts after a set amount of time or it's just relatively small based on total users but everyone's visiting at least once a month.

There's a couple weird things about this re: lemmy.ml data - for instance, the fedidb entry for them specifically shows 147k total posts, but they don't show up in the top 10.

Not sure what to make of that either.
