That's how I feel...
I find less notifications and posts here on weekends compared to weekdays.
Some may think that people would have more time to be online during the weekends so site like this should be busier.
But it seems less busy to me instead, so I think people spend their free time on weekends more on offline activities than online.

Should be interesting to see if it gets slower as the holidays approach

@Marilynda1225 Yes, it will be interesting to see. As for the weekend hypothesis, I had a decent Saturday after three really slow days, but I was also pretty active yesterday (Saturday) morning.

I did a "days of the week" experiment a few weeks ago, after having been here only about three weeks. My results were "inconclusive." It seems "random" to me. My last three or four days were really quiet, but this morning (Saturday morning) seems a bit more active.

It is you who brought me to this great site. Thanks again. And I did not notice if it is quieter here on weekends than during the rest of the week

@Cristi_Ichim The site may be gone, but there are still a lot of things I remember for being on there practically every day for 2.5 years...

It is possible that it has something to do with the time differential, @sishy7 , just like was discovered on Bubbs. Many of our friends here are from around the world, so are on different schedules than we are.
I know that if I want to actually be on myLot when you are physically on myLot, then I must be up very late into my night. That is true for many other countries, as well, although, I have noticed that many of my Indian friends are willing to keep a later schedule than some of my other friends from their side of the world.
When I was on during my daytime, sishy, I felt I had just as many notifications over the week-end as I do during the week. (Today and presumably tomorrow may be different because of the American holiday. I have been able to catch up with my notifications today, so I am attempting to stay current, at this time.)

I have noticed the same thing for several years ... that people spend less time online on the weekends.

I have just gotten back into the fold of mylot so I will have to see how the weekdays go, but I'm sure you are right about the weekends being slower.

Weekends are usually busy for me with family time so I don't have as much time to spend here as I do during the week.
