I think they are just trends that start becoming popular because people are bored. At least, that's how it can start.
I imagine for every user that's like "that's cool!", there's another user who's like "alright time to avoid Lemmy for a while", so perhaps there is not much to glean from the metrics.
Am interested in any data too though, if it's there
Stupid things going viral for no reason like that just seems like a healthy platform.
