Clicking through to the additional statistics is really interesting. The equivalent graph for Monthly Active Users shows a big bump in June/July 2023. That lines up with the reddit event, iirc. If those causality assumptions are accurate, it’s neat how the numbers for total users is more affected by Twitter, but the numbers for active users is more affected by Reddit.
EDIT: nevermind, I didn’t realize the timelines were different. The big Twitter exodus isn’t actually in the second graph, so they can’t be compared. It probably had a bigger impact there as well.
