    user activity is far more than it was a year ago. seems like the people that have joined more recently post a lot more.

        I’ve been on fedi for 2.5 years. the past six months have seen a huge uptick in activity from my experience.

        a year ago posts were rarely seeing 100s of comments. now dozens of posts per day are getting that.

        i’ve also seen a ton more spam, AI content, and bot activity.

          LGBTQ youth who live in a community that is accepting of LGBTQ people reported significantly lower rates of attempting suicide than those who do not.

          I don’t think the data plays this out.

          https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/stats Lemmy has fallen by 10k in a year. Of course Piefed has increased it by about 6k, so it’s a net decline of about 4-5k.

            that’s users. that’s not the volume of what they are posting. those are two entirely different metrics
