In this case, I have a theory. I remember a month ago people were posting a lot on Reddit and the !reddit@lemmy.ml community was extremely active. It was like group therapy for refugees. But now the new reality is setting in and people are actually having real and meaningful conversations, which means more lurkers.

So it doesn’t mean that active users are down per se, it’s just that it’s stabilised because people are mostly over Reddit.

Woohoo! I hope a lot of FOSS project have their own Lemmy/Kbin instance. Reddit, a capitalist platform, is no place for them.

Unfortunately, I don’t think we have a choice. In this capitalist society, money is key to get things moving forward.

Griffais says the company is also directly paying more than 100 open-source developers to work on the Proton compatibility layer, the Mesa graphics driver, and Vulkan, among other tasks like Steam for Linux and Chromebooks. https://www.theverge.com/23499215/valve-steam-deck-interview-late-2022

If it weren’t for Valve, Linux gaming would not be at this advanced stage.
