Arrivals, departures and bans, by month

Almost nobody walked out. They were removed.

Only 241 people ever chose to leave this channel. Another 672 were banned, peaking at 160 in September — a moderation purge, not an exodus. What actually declined was arrivals: 263 joined in the first month, 10 in the last.
