I think the number of actives subs is going down.
I base it on my own observations while looking for a PuG group for a raid or M+.
Last Friday was the first time EVER I was looking through PuG raid listing (Around 9pm) and I didn’t applied to ANY groups :
- Fewer groups than before
- Some were too far into BoD
- Some were fresh
- Not ONE group on the boss I wanted
It’s the first time it happened since BFA lunch.
Same for M+. I have a holly pally around ilvl 393. I was looking for something in the +5 - +7 range. (Excluding my personal Blacklist for donjons) : Not one group.
