Why did commit volume drop in May?

Unrelated, but I took a look at commit graph in pulse and there appears to be significant drop around May this year. Anyone have any idea why?

I don’t know, but I have some related ideas.

@r-ryantm shows a significant drop in activity at the same time, and this bot is a very significant contributor.

Before each release (22.05 this time) there’s also a period when breaking changes are restricted to some extent. But on the other hand some people… feel more motivated to contribute stuff just in time before release, and also ZHF happens.
