i wouldn't trust such sharp drops at the end of charts.

might just be an "implementation error" where the data is not refreshed. always check next day again to make sure.

also, might just be because of upcoming christmas (buying gifts and other preparations) that people are less active on nostr because they are more stressed out now just to be less stressed out later, lol

so for me, this looks like an outlier (if it's even "real data") and not like a trend.

A summary of my experience on nostr so far

Well, according to this site, there's been a dramatic drop of active daily users very recently.

A decentralized, censorship resistant, communication protocol doesn't have mainstream appeal in and of itself. I don't think it's going to catch on till the digital ID/CBDC's start rolling out in the EU and elsewhere, and even then I'm not even sure.
