The user base seems to fluctuate a bit, but there is still a solid core of people using it... Just not enough people drawing to it. Most people are keeping their main gallery somewhere else or not updating here, which means that only the dedicated people trying to get it going are going to be around long term. The rest are just leaving once one of their favorite artists stops updating here or updates elsewhere first. I'm really sad it happens, but it does :I

I am too, to be honest! I hate to follow suit, so I'm sort of fighting with myself about it. On one hand: GOSH Weasyl's system is well thought out, and what a nice, glitch-free site! On the other: I'm not getting much out of it, and everyone I follow here I follow either on Fur Affinity or deviantART already. D: Maybe I'll stick it out for a few more months and see if anything improves.

I personally think they killed any chance of getting a decent base by inviting all the popular people first.The invite only beta, you can adjust with, but once everyone cliques up, you can kiss any chances of them looking outside their comfort zone good bye.
