THere are many people who leave but, the numbers also lie. I don't think the number of signups is representative at all otherwise there would be a hell of a lot more introduceyourself posts. Even now, half of them there don't even qualify as new users.
There are people on all platform that disengage. I haven't posted to instagram or twitter for ages and Facebook very rarely. The disngagement numbers just aren't made overly public as it is not great for the advertising revenue.
If you suffer from envy and greed, this might not be a good fit
Greed seems to work fine for many, large and small.
Sign-ups mean nothing when spam networks have 21K accounts through the Steemit Inc faucet abusing delegation.
I use vote/post last 7/30 days as a more accurate metric.
Yep, those networks once Identified should be dealt with. I know they can't be (at this point) but in time, something is going to have to happen.
about the numbers.. you would probably seen it but. just a reminder.

Actually, really good points. The numbers do not always add up.
People go inactive they come back when the prices are up. Overall though, it is growing. It seems obvious though it is growing.
I don't know who decided we are going to take over Facebook, but I don't think we will. I also don't think we need to.
We will take over Facebook when the CIA decides they no longer want to support Zuck ;)
