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)

I still can’t wrap my head around being so pro-trans rights (a fabulous thing), yet in the same breath simping for China. Not the most stellar LGBTQIA+ record there.

Yeah, it reminds me of the behavior found on 4chan. A lot of the things I've heard about hexbear - someone made a mega post about their userbase and how it's filled with trolls, just lines right up with 4chan type mentality and pushing contrarian ideologies that are meant to put people in an uproar - like ragebaiting.

And then all hear from hexbear users is this creepy rhetoric about how they're free thinker with ideas or some shit. Sounds like what Jehovah Witnesses say to get people to join their cult.
