It is probably due to a number of people stopping using their alts after some instance hopping.

Also a few people who came to see how it was, and weren't attracted enough to become regular visitors.

Curious to see at which number we'll stabilize.

Next peak will probably happen after either major features release (e.g. exhaustive mod tools allowing reluctant communities to move from Reddit) or the next Reddit fuck up (e.g. removing old.reddit)

The cope is strong. Let’s not pretend fewer active users is a good thing. It just means people are unhappy and are leaving.

Yup if I hadn't blocked several communities from appearing constantly in my feed, I would leave too.
