You could watch the decline over the last ten years. The creation of the politics forum actually helped a bit, but now you've got DVTimes filling up the front page with Guardian articles and Youtube videos (and claiming that if he doesn't do it, the forum will die).
The days of hundreds to thousands of small to large affiliates shooting the shit while running their websites all day is long gone, and with them there's no real incentive for affiliate managers and company owners to hang around here. Sure, there are still people around, but a lot of guys have matured out of the forum format, or have moved on to smaller private forums, discord, telegram, skype groups, etc.
Take the DVTimes spam and political bullshit away and GFY is mostly an echo chamber of guys still trying to make it with embed tubes, cam whitelabels, and wordpress blogs, while the older guys are still blaming piracy 15 years ago for their current situation.
