Could there something be wrong with the presentation?

The total number of edits at the English Wikipedia should have dropped 21,23% https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/en.wikipedia.org
The numbers at https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/en.wikipedia.org/contributing/edits/normal|table|2-year|~total|monthly do show 63.8M edits in 2021 and only 61.5M in 2020.

Do I misinterpret the graph?

There's another option: the 2020 pandemic lockdowns made a huge peak on views, so year on year, 2021 has worse results.

2022(e)ko urt. 7(a) 18:41 erabiltzaileak hau idatzi du (Anders Wennersten <mail@anderswennersten.se>):

When I look at statistics for mature wikipedias: en, de pl, nl they all
show a decrease of views of 13-15% in last 12 months from a year ago,
and number of active editors down 10- 20 % (with exception of en).

Has this been analysed somewhere, are we losing our readers and
contributors or is it mostly Google that access our info "smarter" not
creating "views"
