This. There is too little new people joining and not enough incentive to join.
Imho, the biggest deterrent beside the lack of users is the ‘politics’ that’s almost everywhere (so, so often accompanied by anger when it’s not hatred). Sure, it’s more problematic on some instances than others but it’s almost everywhere. That’s also relatively easy to filter out of one’s feed but it still needs to be filtered manually which may not be the most interesting thing a brand new user may want to do… that is if they have not already been dissuaded to join just by reading the default feed?
