Re: Is this „group“ oversaturated?

Re: Is this „group“ oversaturated?

In my view, this site was at its peak before social media platforms were ubiquitous on phones. It's also clear that far fewer shots are getting uploaded - a quick look at the queue shows 7,752 uploads, averaging just under 300 per day. Those photos are getting far fewer views and taking longer to g...
