Hmmm! A veritable smorgasbord of data!
Parts of this information look a little concerning, however when we take in the sheer length of time some of the charts cover the story is not far more understandable. 5 + 6 do imply that a corner may have been turned. Oh I do sincerely hope so.
There feels a certain spirit of rebirth in parts of the community, within those pockets sentiment and intention feels tangible and full of belief. Those communities need to start being a lot more evenly spread I think... I suspect that will come as people find their niche.
I have set myself a must do list for things I wish to learn, get involved with and help to flourish including onboarding via traditional social media, supporting ideas that bring far more liquidity to Hive itself. I am not a Dev in any way shape or form BUT I have long held a feeling that...
If we reach a critical mass of non-technical community members doing what is in their remit to bring the community to the next level, it WILL happen!
Those with energy and a vision for the potential of our community must be fostered and encouraged and supported.
D'you know I do believe we are going to hit a growth spell soon... I feel it.
Nice work on bringing a visual representation to the jumbled assumptions that live in our heads.
Thank you @stevenwood
