    I know its only one data point, but I just logged on to see how many people were online in a sub i used to frequent and it was down 30-50%, the lowest numbers i’ve seen all year.

      Well I’m new here so there’s one more data point. I figure if this thing doesn’t bug out, continues to function and servers can handle growth, it’s got no reason to shrink.

      I’m curious to check stuff like that, but I’m refusing. Just checking it counts as traffic, and I don’t want them to mistake my morbid curiosity for me still using it.
