Most recently lemmyloves.art. Exploding heads shut down. waveform.social was DDOS’ed and decided to shut down. And then there’s the vlemmy.net disappearance. I’m sure there are many others.
If the total user count is based off the users on the instances, instances shutting down would reduce the total number of users.

On https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy one of the charts is total instances. It recorded 1312 instances in July and 1249 in August.
I didn’t know exploding heads shut down.
I have noticed a decent drop in the discourse myself and thus, am simply pulling back.
Size doesn’t matter to me as much as activity. And it’s just not to active in the topics I’m interested in discussing.
Lemmyloves.art was tiny, but I will hopefully be able to bring it back in time :)
