Spreading of the 100 biggest Lemmy communities

2 observations:

  • Wow I didn’t think hexbear was that large. That’s unfortunate…

  • The fact that Lemmyworld is like 40% of the pie is NOT good. People are clearly not understanding or not caring thay the point of the fediverse is to prevent any one instance from having too much power. People need to leave lemmy world and join other smaller instances. If lemmy world were to shut down, imagine how many of the most popular communities would be gone.

  • I mean the first problem went away when I sorted the communities by active users, though the second one got way worse with it XD
    As someone out of the loop, why is hexbear bad? Alternatively, what is hexbear about?

    They openly state that their primarily goals in federation is to be obnoxious trolls, and boy howdy do they put a lot of energy into it. They are first and foremost, just obnoxious. It’s like 20% teenagers going through their edgy anti establishment phase, and then the rest are right wing, Russian, and Chinese trolls playing soggy waffle with each other. They pretend to be super serious about LGBT issues but then simply for Hamas and Russia. And ond of their tankie leaders just got caught calling trans issues “western pink washing.”

    It’s just a mess. It’s probably a bit overblown, but the community is legitimately annoying if nothing else.

    one of their tankie leaders just got caught calling trans issues “western pink washing.”

    This didn’t happen. Pics or you’re talking shit.

    lemmy.ml/post/18761554

    see the link to “kristinas post” for zhe hexbear take on the situation (nutomic is banned from hexbear afaik)

    An admin of this instance, Nutomic, is a transphobe and has no right to be able to ban trans people from this community. - Lemmy

    I’m calling for https://lemmy.ml/u/[email protected] [/u/[email protected]] [https://lemmy.ml/u/[email protected]], the most prolific user of the transgender comm here on lemmy.ml [http://lemmy.ml], to be immediately unbanned and nutomic to be removed as admin. It is good and correct to leak the DMs of transphobes. @[email protected] [/u/[email protected]] [https://lemmy.ml/u/dessalines] @[email protected] [/u/[email protected]] [https://lemmy.ml/u/JoeBidet] @cypherphunks edit: you can find more info from kristinas post here [https://hexbear.net/post/3129775] and beavers post here [https://lemmy.ca/post/26211900] edit 2: proof, also beaver was banned from the whole instance modlong [https://lemmy.ml/modlog?page=1&actionType=All&userId=9782557] [https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/65be653e-8268-4d6f-a1db-543a41f39375.png] edit 3: For trans people looking for a safer instance, I suggest Hexbear. They have a very active trans user base and are extremely supportive.

    (nutomic is banned from hexbear afaik)

    Indeed, interesting: hexbear.net/u/[email protected]

    They take transphobia very seriously there. There was a whole thing about lemm.ee defederation, they defedded from blahaj because of that etc.
