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

One thing is that kbin/mbin/piefed/etc...etc... interact with lemmy all the time. Its getting a bit hazy if "lemmy" the platform is growing or if the entirety of the fediverse is growing and others are communicating with the software. We are now seeing quite a few accounts from all over the web interacting with lemmy communities. Is that a new "user" according to the stats? Or is that person a one off from mastodon?

What I a seeing is a general increase in discussion on the platform and increase in posts from all over the fediverse. Which is awesome!
