At least a couple of factors. The first major thing is that It seems like many people are no longer really moving away from X no matter what Elon does or to the extent they do the hype for Bluesky may have died down so much that they go more to Threads. Ppl leave as the site slows down.
Another factor is a string of bad mod decisions and interactions that the BSky team has had with the community which has made people think they may not really be that much better than Meta or X

Fediverse is dying as well.

People just don’t give a single fuck. I don’t think anything can move users away from them no matter what big social does.
This stat page is awesome. It is OK if the fediverse does not grow all the time, I believe it is the future for me personally.
At least the fediverse will continue to exist because of its open and decentralized nature. It’s always aimed towards a more niche audience and tbh that is a good thing.
Thank you!
