@mawr@plush.city i imagine the 2020 dip is the pandemic, meteoric rise in 2022 is due to ai shit being actively developed, 2025 falloff is due to collective abandonment as the result of the ai shit. but i could be wrong

@mynameistillian@plush.city @mawr@plush.city A big factor is also Trump's return to office and the subsequent cratering of, well, everything in the U.S. But AI absolutely plays a major role

@mynameistillian@plush.city @mawr@plush.city nah, the rise started in 2021. this was after work from home was taking off and businesses adapted to work within stay at home orders. lot of people were laid off during the pandemic and new hirings stalled as businesses restructured. that turned out very well, actually, which is probably the main reason you see the growth you do. people working from how was actually great for tech. when they forced people back to office it actually harmed them, but they didn't care
