    Yes, a big factor, many users gradually left the site after the API changed. Also the sub mods have become increasingly ban-happy in the recent years.

      While you may be correct, I think op was referring to the the tool that counts the comments for this chart.

      It maybe used the APIs to count comments and that’s why the sudden drop in the comments count. It just can’t count them as reliably anymore.

      But it’s just a guess.

      The admins are banning anyone whi questions a mod these days, assuming they’re not puppets of them in the first place. Any sembalence of a distinction between mods and admins is gone
