MODERATORS
In general, noticeable drop after the initial hype is expected and usual. I'm sure, there are a lot of dead accounts on lemmy as well.
In case of threads the initial jump was super huge (because of several reasons), so is the drop. 20% is still a lot, and people already have an account there, some of them can return later.
I’d like to see similar data for Lemmy usage, before and after the Reddit fiasco. How big was the bump from Reddit? How quickly did it peak after the initial excitement? How many stayed?
Looks like the "active last month" peaked at 702k and we're now around 615k. https://the-federation.info/platform/73
We retained 80% plus. Seems pretty good.
Fantastic, thanks. We have to expect such a pattern where many give it a try but not all stick around however these numbers look much better than Threads
