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)

Same. Half my reddit activity was on r/femboysDM and sissykik2. How is lemmy gonna replace those??

Lemmynsfw.com is getting some traction.

But yeah, otherwise that's very true for a lot of niche communities.
