I did some analysis: https://i.imgur.com/13CSAlk.png

 From the markings, you can pretty clearly see my theory, but you 
can also see that I don't know what I'm talking about and there 
doesn't actually seem to be any clear correlation between release 
and post activity. And I suspect this data is dominated by 
contentious megathreads - though, no release, nothing to talk 
about seems to hold, though with some delay.
