Lemmy has grown more accounts but monthly active users has slightly dropped.
Piefed used to have a history, but it appears to be gone. Piefed has been slowly dieing due to terrible design decisions by the guy that runs majority of it.
Piefed has made some rocky decisions but the user accounts are trending up, MAU jumps around but is mostly trending up, seems about the same trends as lemmy just a much smaller scale.
The chart for piefed doesn’t show for some reason. I just remember months ago seeing massive drops when Lemmy didn’t. That might have fallen off the date range currently shown.
Also total users doesn’t matter when new accounts are free. Someone can make an account, realize the creator is a man child that bans any criticism, and the total still goes up while that person changes to Lemmy and never used piefed again.
