Most people who moved over are more likely to be contributors.

That’s the key - a relatively small number of people provided the bulk of the content and they are also the kind of power users who would have been hit hard by the API changes, so are most likely to leave.

Quality over quantity and exactly the kind of people you want to help build a new place like this.
