"The decline of QAnon can be attributed to a series of factors, including failed prophecies regarding Mr. Trumps reelection, social media companies cracking down on QAnon accounts, and the temporary suppression of Parler a key communication platform for the groupfollowing the 2021 Capitol storming. Consequently, the movement saw a loss of followers, both among those less adept in technology and others who shifted to alternative encrypted platforms like Telegram and Gab. Telegram gained 25 million subscribers within 72 hours post-crackdown, while Gab experienced a staggering 753% increase in traffic. Presently, platforms such as Gab, Telegram, and 4chan still harbor the most radicalized adherents, albeit with significantly reduced traffic compared to the past."
"QAnon movements efforts to rebuild itself with the presidential elections exactly a year from now have thus far proven largely unsuccessful. The movement seems to have lost most online traction, is still leaderless, and suffered real-world consequences in the shape of several arrests in the past years. But certain present and future catalysts serve as opportunities for followers of Q to try and gain momentum. Any decision going against Trumps favor regarding the ongoing indictment cases will most likely be reused by online adherents to further sustain their conspiracy theory. So will comments from Trump in the weeks leading to the election. Threatening rhetoric towards liberal figures, minorities, and those opposed to Trump will likely intensify."
