We have deeper graphs. I want to be sensitive to our product team's time,
but I am sure they will share when they can.
The short answer -- I believe -- the the community tends to gravitate
towards its current state and loose new editors at a higher rate. This is
not unusual in general of course -- what is concerning is the delta in
those rates. So we also need to understand the differences in the loss
between now and say 5 years ago when rules of engagement, dynamics and
overall state of the internet where different, and how that influenced
retention.
Again, I am still learning, and our PMs may correct me on this :)

Hi Frederico
Neither of those answers my question. I doesn't tell me whether we are
bleeding new or old members. The reason for an editor of either group to
leave are different. All that that graph shows is that there has been a
frightful drop since 2007.

Do we have any figures on retention of new editors?

In the end what retention matters for is
