What happened around the middle of February that caused that slight but sharp drop-off?
Hexbear going down, !fediverselore@lemmy.ca
A slightly different graph from Fedecan shows the user growth more clearly without the Hexbear blip
Highest daily growth since 2023 at 1.2k per day the past few days.

Nice, I didn't know fedecan hosted graphs like this. The fediverse.observer graph has a weird scale and Fedidb has also been weird lately, so this is a good alternative.
i wonder if those jumps are due to Reddits ban waves?
Ahh okay. Thanks.
For the story, if i recall correctly, part of hexbear admins were aways so they got a paiement problem.
Their domain reseller put a bid for hexbear.net domain. It skyrocketed to 2500$. I'm glad they didn't have to pay those corpothieve.
thats about the time when reddit was upping thier ban purges, my hunch is people who have lemmy mightve stop using temporarily to find out what was going on/repealing thier bans on reddit?
for a several days i dint immediately go to LEMMY after my permabans, but trying to find out the reason behind all these purges ? some people have multiple reddit accounts
