    To be honest, based on what I’ve seen from floatplane subscriber comments its people leaving because of the content pause.

    Any negative comment is immediately disliked to oblivion

      I feel these graphs tell a different story:

      IMHO The people who really cared have left, the one who are on the verge are mainly waiting and the one actively participating with votes are the core fans.

      The source is Reddit from user nicePenguin, here’s an archived version (Link), they put up a site too at http://fp-stats.buzz , I’m not sure about the overall accuracy, but it doesn’t seem wrong at first glance.

        Yeah thats a good point, to be honest it looks like its mostly levelled off and they haven’t lost more than the people who joined after feeling bad for them bc of the hack.

        Personally, I’d be willing to bet most of the people they lost are the ones who most recently joined if their only reason for joining was feeling bad for them? Therefore not the hardcore stans
