It is probably due to a number of people stopping using their alts after some instance hopping.
Also a few people who came to see how it was, and weren't attracted enough to become regular visitors.
Curious to see at which number we'll stabilize.
Next peak will probably happen after either major features release (e.g. exhaustive mod tools allowing reluctant communities to move from Reddit) or the next Reddit fuck up (e.g. removing old.reddit)

lemmy.world being down half the time probably made a lot of people think that this platform is trash and left.
The number of times Lemmy.world was down made it unusable for me to use. Switched to Lemdro.id and it's so much better now.
I am on Lemm.ee and haven't had a single issue
Tbh it did affect me, I had just joined and it was out often, & it seemed like a hassle (being new) to find and join new instances or w/e especially when I had to create a new account for every one. Didn't necessarily think it was trash just buggy and unreliable especially for that to be happening during such a big migration (after Reddit changed the api's)
Idk it's nice here but that did reduce my usage. Something that I'm new on being down for a day or two means I'm less likely to use it the next day and incorporate it into my daily routine
You probably figured it out by now, but you don't need to create a new account for every instance. You can just go to www.yourinstance.com/c/community@otherinstance.com and comment or subscribe there.
I think a good third of what I have typed or posted so far on Lemmy has never succeeded as submitting them would cause it to stop responding and never compete. Refreshing will bring the page back up and allow me comment, but it'll not work most the time.
Their downtime has been pretty severe... growing pains, I get it, but it's not just that.
After several attempts at retyping it all, then trying to copy and paste to try to post again just got to me a bit. It's taking a lot out of me as I'm personally struggling in life to try to communicate with people, with it being flakey all the time, it's feels like when you have to repeat yourself, then just give up.
It's a shame because I wanted to post in me communities, but I couldn't. I keep seeing "View reply" on my comments, but they frequently never load or just vanish. I do wonder if they're broken/incomplete replies.
you should have left lemmy.world a month ago. those issues dont happen elsewhere
You are definitely right that it's not that common an occurrence on the other instances. But yes, I should have clarified these issues are with lemmy.world.
You should probably move instance.
