My post got removed from technology community for no reason, so I am posting it here in hope of getting the full picture:

From what I can understand, every factor lead me to believe that lemmy is in decline.

Active users page now

Active users page at 3/30/2024

The latest release from lemmy is at Jan 22 (0.19.3)

In contrast, mastodon for example had several releases in Feb alone

Some people on reddit hate the community here.

I personally started seeing some of my posts on other platforms get more comments and upvotes.

Am I wrong or is it really the downfall of lemmy?

    You picked two random days, compared their active user counts, and concluded that it must indicate a continuous trend.

    Yesterday, it was 60°F out. Today it’s 30°F out. Clearly, by next week, everyone in my town will be dead by freezing.

    Experts struggle with statistics. Laymen, doubly so.

    EDIT:

    Also, that’s only a difference of 7%, so it’s not even that drastic.

    EDIT2:

    Also also, what does any of this have to do with your post being removed? What was the post? Did the mod/admin give you a reason for removal?
