Spreading of the 100 biggest Lemmy communities
(media.gehirneimer.de)
The biggest surprise for me was the https://hexbear.net count, an instance I hardly interact with.

I can see why folk don't like hexbear as they come off as leftist 4chan, but you don't need to make things up. They often talk about traveling. I agree with a lot of their content and disagree with some, I've been to 10 countries. In the plane to France, an African told me how their country is still enslaved to France. Personally I don't see the value in the immediate destruction of the west, but with their leaderships ardent support for Nazi Germany, Apartheid, the Climate Crisis and assassination of climate activists, others, and now Zionism, they should lose influence through any means necessary.
make it make sense
Didn't mean it literally, only that it's so shitposty that it can overshadow most serious conversations. It is a far better moderated and accepting community. It's mainly their trans posts that made me better accept trans individuals. And I discourage writing them off like most should with 4chan.
