Is QAnon still a thing?

I haven’t heard anything about them in quite a while. It’s like they were a hot-button topic of conversation, and then everyone just stopped talking about them. If they’re still around, what would be the reason they seemingly disappeared from the news?

It was always a russian influence operation. That effort is probably spent on another operation atm.

I don’t think it started that way, but I’m sure literally everyone (Russian troll farm included) got in on the action eventually.

It was a LARP that got jacked by Jim and Ron Watkins. Of course the Russians did everything they could to spread and benefit from QAnon, but, no, they didn't start it.
