BO forum slowly dying?

Is it just me, or is the forum getting fewer and fewer comments?

We're on the verge of opening day and it seems kind of dead around here.

Is it partially because Topps is being so late and inconsistent with releases? Products seem to be releasing sporadically and further apart than ever before.

Is it partially because it's not so easy for average participants in the hobby to make money anymore? The forum was bustling during the first year of the pandemic when sales and prices were skyrocketing.

Is it partially because a lot of activity has moved over to other social media platforms? Is card pumping and grifting more effective on those platforms?

Is it because so many prominent users have been banned? Bbases comes to mind, but there are multiple others.

Help me out -- what's going on? Do I need to start making regular posts to boost activity around here? I swear to god, I will do it. Work be damned.
