In my opinion, because of this situation in the world, because of the COVID-19 scamdemia, many people have lost their jobs,
No, I can't agree with you on this, there were plenty boity hunters right away before pandemic period, participating in different bounties even when it wasn't paying them with rewards, there were kits if scam bounties right before pandemic but they never give up and still participate in them, I may say that doing bounties is a just a thing if the the mind and its a fun to them.
To me, newbies participating in bounties makes up the 80% of forum members that are recorded, but its isn't make sense as they care not about bitcoin discussion, gambling experience, one becomes perfect when one stop hitting altcoin bounties board button, one becomes scam free/alert when one avoid been a hunter, it helps me a lot.
Newbie accounts in bitcointalk does not really participate in the forum if their main intention is just to join the bounty.
They will just make use of their account in making reports, that's it, they'll spam the bounty thread with report and maybe you'll see some who are not really sharing to the discussion with sense because they are just shilling a certain project, what would they risk, nothing, because even if they get red tag, they can just easily make a new one.
Thus, in a few years, perhaps 5-10 years, this forum will simply cease to be relevant, as newcomers to the forum does not appear, but the old members of the forum over time, too, leave us. I am very scared for the future of our forum!
