Is mastodon ,or the fediverse in general, growing? (lemmings.world)

Life is always preparing for the next cataclysm but fediverse is preparing for corporations hemorrhaging users. I keep looing at numbers and different sources show that there's a peak in MAU when Elon buys twitter, but then slowly falls over time. I'm curious if anyone has noticed a drop off, or if the peak had some crazy amount of posts and comments?

side note: I'm trying to help build up the fediverse streamer community get the people that want to watch streamer with people that want to watch streamer, but I have only noticed minor improvements. like streamers are connecting with other streamers, and one account has said that they got a boost. nothing to suggest that new members have joined from outside the fediverse streamer.

i actually believe lemmy should cross post to reddit, just so redditors can get exposure to lemmy. I got banned off of reddit years ago so I have little idea whats going on over there, i just see on lemmy that reddit has used ai based bots for moderating. I'm pretty much thinking of niche things to build up to help produce more content

I disagree. I tried to cross post to the silos for 11 years https://jeena.net/notes/1 and I couldn't move anyone to an alternative platform. Cross posting only legitimizes the other platform and gives them free content to exploit.
