I think it could also be that since being trans and nonbinary is more tolerated (ignore the news, really even now being trans is far more socially acceptable than it was all of last decade) most of the people that would be interested in body mods like this might just glean information from trans forums and be closeted enby. The kind of people that wouldn't want to be anywhere near that identity as a guy are probably too afraid to try this kind of stuff.

So, the gays got gayer and the straights got straighter and this middle zone is neglected, or at least has less people to draw from.

But yeah, forum posts about the popularity of the forum is best avoided, kinda makes things worse. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

The increasing acceptance (or rather tolerance) of trans/non-binary individuals is something I didn't consider. I think it makes a lot of sense.

As far as posting about the popularity of the forum, I wasn't trying to make things worse. It was more out of sincere concern/curiosity. I feel you have a valid point there's not much sense in worrying about it now.
