Time ... Who is posting?
Account Duration
The first accounts were created in April 2016. We are now over the 1.3m account mark. Absolute number is important but retention is also important.
- How many people who joined over the course of the last year are still posting?
- Who is creating the bulk of the daily content?
October 2019 (Today)
- The Posts over the last week show that most of the posts have been made by Accounts that have been around for over 1 year.
September 2018 (1 year Ago)
Looking back a year ago the picture looked quite different!
What that tells me is that many of the accounts who where in the middle brackets have moved into the oldest bracket. New accounts that have remained active have been created at a lower rate in the last quarter of 2018 and this year than during the bull run. Not very surprising. Activity on Steem has been tied to the price pretty clearly. What that tells me is that a lot of the users who came on board during the bull run were after the money and only it and only as long as it was good in the short term.
What we need is improved user experience and users who come for the great apps that make use of the blockchain's qualities (censorship resistance, possibility of ownership of assets etc.) rather than earning a lot of STEEM from the pool.
Well hello! Good to see you back with your reports. Shocking figures. No wonder it's so difficult to find stuff to vote on.
Hello @deirdyweirdy
Shocking figures indeed. The whole crypto space needs a shot of something I think. Its been a quiet year.
Splinterlands has been hitting new records consistently though.
Well… me. But nobody cares 😂😂😂
Seems to me like the older accounts are the ones doing the most posting, probably the same guys who had over one year posting last year are doing the same this year and what we don't have are new active users. Also going down from close to 20k a day to 6k a day is kind of worrying I think.
Daily Active Users is the key metric for a social media platform.
A ghost!!! Welcome back fella. Get on Sportstalk and post there please :-)
Wooohoo. I should have waited till Halloween :)
