Looking at these period average lines would be more useful as it covers each solar cycle.
Note how 2008 was close to the winter normal while 2018 was a good bit below. However, the September minimum shows both years close to the same.
13 years apart and they are very close to the same. Let me repeat, there has been very little change of the Arctic sea ice during the past 15 years.
How come you didn't "summerize" your mom's home? You didn't plan things out to well did ya?! Karma's a bitch!

The same? It doesn't matter, just confirms the following observation:
Since 2015, on that graph, 5 (or at least 4) out of 7 numbers are lower than the trend line, and also lower than any number before 2015. This also applies to the average of those 7. And the rest are roughly on a level with the previous minimum. To me that means the downward trend is continuing if not increasing. It's not about the fluctuations of individual years.

I guess we can just be happy that even climate change deniers are helping to fight climate change.
The Arctic sea ice volume and extent has gone down over a 40 year period. But during the past decade and a half, that decline has diminished considerably.

Put your eyes on this sea ice thickness map.
There is still a considerable amount of 3 to 4 meter thick ice in the Arctic. This is updated to 02 JUL 2021. The video clip by ohmman only goes to 2016.

In climate vs. weather dynamics, it is not uncommon that within the irregular "zig-zags" of a long-term trend, there are "zags" that sometimes look like a 10-15 years stagnation in a specific graph. Even the global mean surface temperatures have those as well when it goes from an unusual high to an unusual low. You have to look at it in a context of 40-50 years to see if it is really that unusual. It isn't if you look at the long term trendline.
The surface mass balance of Greenland is now normal according to the Danish scientists.
Check out the last 10 years. Dramatic slow down of volume decline, if not stopped.
Yes, again, the only spot on earth that is cooling. More cherry picking of data.
