Per the title, is Lemmy actually growing, or will it stagnate and fade into obscurity like many other similar discussion boards?

Total post doesn't really tell us much. Of course there's going to be more posts over time. Hell there are Bots that post things. That number is going to go up as long as the servers exist. There could be no human users on here and those are going to go up.

When you sort by monthly active users, this is what you get:

What really jumps out to me is the fact .ml's active users equals the total users. Not too sure what to make of it. I'd assume the mod's delete nonactive accounts after a set amount of time or it's just relatively small based on total users but everyone's visiting at least once a month.

(me. I'm probably the only one chanting at this fact)

You're server's #3 when it comes to monthly active users too!
