It feels like it's dying. Just anecdotally it seems like there have been less threads lately, less quality threads, and less discussion overall. More anecdotally I feel like the last couple of federation / defederation slap fights ended with many users leaving as well. I can think of a few who left because we were federating, some who left because we then subsequently defederated from lots of the fediverse, and then even a few who said they would leave if we didn't defederate and then left anyway when we did.

I feel like mostly overall I have seen very few new posters, and have seen less and less of some certain power posters.

Is this just a illusion or is this really what's happening. What is to be done?

no I meant the struggle session about if AI art is actually good because it lets disabled people draw or something. Which is like, yeah, but idk something about how people use AI art doesn’t make me think that’s it’s current social function (it’s what you’re saying, a tool against labor)

Right on, I'm just paranoid about being accused of being an AI bro!
