Can someone give me a visual timeline of this site?

I've seen so many blogs and stuff about the gore and callouts and how tik-tok caused this site to become popular. But I just came back after some months and it feels DEEAAAAD. Deadder than dead. To the point where I see the same five people being active.

I can't bring myself to belive all these issues existed without a timeline or something. What the hell happened while I was gone??!!
