More and more people have drifted away and not been replaced by active posters. There are still a few topics around more traditional LW topics but not attracting much discussion. The most active discussions seem to be around a single member whose attempts at disruption have been entirely successful at multiple levels. Some of the more prolific remaining are judged, via downvotes and commentary, to be of low quality, and little contentful discussion ensues. There are still a few debates or arguments outside meta topics but they are mostly covering familiar ground.
LW is not a well kept garden any longer, one may wonder whether it is even a garden. LW2.0 is often mentioned as a glorious future but it’s looking pretty bleak around LW1.0 in the present.

As with many areas; The future could not come soon enough.
