Most of my original subs come from .world so I don’t know what’s worth following on .ml, lemmygrad, hexbear, etc.

Maybe I could even extend this question to what communities in non major instances are worth subing too.

    i suspect that hexbear is the most active instance on lemmy by far; but if it wont be good for you if you can’t handle genz/gena sensibilities or are not atleast vehemently anti-capitalist.

      most active instance on lemmy

      In the case of “frequently defederated”? Or in General?

      Looking at FediDB (which seems a little broken), it seems like Lemmy.World is tripling their monthly posts.

        both. lol

        i think it’s a symptom of the sensibilities of genz clashing with older generations; sort of like millennials clashing with boomers but to a MUCH more significant degree.

        you can see how well above it’s weight hexbear is punching when it comes to active users; communities like slop, badposting, and chapotraphouse in particular.

          Oh, 100%. In terms of posts per active user, they look to be killing it.

            and it also doesn’t include the people who aren’t on hexbear; but still posting there.

              That makes the stat worse, not better, no?

              Uncounted users means fewer posts per user.

                It is for hexbear since it means that others whose post there aren’t counted if their primary instance isn’t hexbear
