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.

    lemmygrad and hexbear are Marxist-Leninist

    might not be a good idea unless you consider yourself to be a Marxist-Leninist

    also, there were once a fascist instance exploding-heads that were defederated by many instances, they no-longer exist, but it just shows not every ban is unjustified


    as for people in lemmy.world: Your admins blocked !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

    not jolly, not jolly at all 😾🏴‍☠️

    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

    Well, if you want a sense of what the founder on .ml believes in, go to worldnews@lemmy.ml.

    07 to Alsephina, shreddiebiologist, Peter Link, Arthur Besse, IndustryStandard, NightOwl, yogthos etc.

    A sense of what the geopolitical fowks on Hexbear believe in, go to news@hexbear.net, specifically their megathreads (sometimes they reach 1000 comments, sometimes maybe 2 or 3 kilos)

    for lemmygrad.ml’s beliefs, just check any news area there (no big megathreads there; tis a small site there)

    You can go to the specific instance you have in mind and browse “Local” every once in a while.

    I’m doing my part to pour shit into shitposting on .ml
