Mostly stable. A few communities go strong, many more remain silent.

Bots though. There are a bunch of bots merely reposting links to other platforms like reddit, and it’s so annoying. Their posts sit at +0 votes, 0 comments, and clutter communities and All feed. I’m mostly talking about lemmit.online/u/bot and zerobytes.monster/u/bOt. If anyone knows for what they are good, if anyone likes something about their existence, please enlighten me. From my point of view, they’re like a (maybe) opt-out newsletter for which you were never asked if you want to receive it. And apparently people are working to make more bots and create more bot instances to mirror more non-interactive reddit posts into Lemmy. I think that’s a terrible development for existing users, and severely off-putting for newcomers.

I also learned over the past months how tankies can be bending the truth and be quick with their banhammer. It’s a bit eerie to see them create alternate realities shielded from outside opinions, how all that works technically with de-/federation, various versions of comment sections, and so on.
