Is the amount of Lemmy activity declining? (lemmy.ca)

I joined during the first Reddit exodus, and it seemed like for ages the amount of Lemmy content was generally increasing (sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly, but overall increasing). Now it seems that when I sort by New, I get through everything since my last visit much more quickly than I used to. Is that my imagination, or is the activity declining?

I think I've just reduced social media participation in general.

I still browse a lot but with so much AI bollocks and rage bait and engagement farming and any other manner of "fake stuff pretending to be real stuff" going on it just doesn't seem worth it to actually participate much.
