A possible dark explanation:
-The main reason people cared about lesswrong was that Scott and Elizier posted on lesswrong. Neither posts on lesswrong anymore. Unless some equally impressive thinkers can be recruited to post on LW the site will not recover.
I'll weigh in and say that neither Scott nor Eliezer were much of an incentive for posting on LW. Mostly I like the high standards of discussion in the comments, and the fact that there is a much lower inferential distance on many important topics.
Yeah, strangely Yvain, lukeprog, and Eliezer definitely weren't my favorite writers on LW but perhaps the volume of their contributions led to positive network effects.
