So, I got site-wide banned from reddit a while ago due to using the word "purge" on a post and since then I have been using Lemmy more and more. However, one thing that I have noticed is that Lemmy is less active than reddit.

For example, the most comments I have seen a post get is 200, where in reddit I'm confident it would get much more.

Lemmy is shrinking significantly since the boom of the reddit appocalypse. It's a problem a lot of people here like to ignore or pretend it's not a problem.

    There used to be semi regular Posts tracking posts and monthly active users. You might be able to find them. Over the past couple years, there's been a consistent flat to negative trend in activity, the general consensus to this wasn't concern, some were even happy.
