I joined during the first Reddit exodus, and it seemed like for ages the amount of Lemmy content was generally increasing (sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly, but overall increasing). Now it seems that when I sort by New, I get through everything since my last visit much more quickly than I used to. Is that my imagination, or is the activity declining?

I'm not in a country with the age verification thing, but has it been turned on for Lemmy servers?

I don't know, but I was thinking it might be causing people to be less online generally, even if Lemmy itself isn't a problem. I wonder what the Lemmy NSFW people are doing.

UK user here, several big lemmy instances are unavailable for me apart from when I'm on erm holiday

I don't know of any servers that have started to verify ages, but some have started to geoblock countries whose laws require it.
