Just wanted to share a thread for those who don’t regularly venture out of the bear site. Can’t cross-post since it’s defederated. It’s small but has some numbers about community counts, active users, etc and links to more info from https://lemmyverse.net/. Thought it was notable that Hexbear shows up no matter how you sort it.
OP image is community count sorted by active users in the last month.
Edit: sorted by comments
Damn I’m shocked how small hexbear is, if I’d had to guess I woulda thought you guys were like 30% of the fediverse. How does 98% of the shitposting and best reaction gifs come from 2% of the user base? Touch grass sometimes, damn lmao
This has gotta be by sub count not posts or comments.
Same thing would happen on reddit when they’d post graphs of most “active” subredidts and people would be confused about why 2000 people on a subreddit about an obscure political podcast had more discussion than the NBA subreddit.

It’s cause this community is only one of very few on the Internet so there’s more concentrated time if we want this particular environment
Whereas the user base and culture of most other Lemmy instances can be found in many places
Yeah if you are a lemmy.world user you are probably still spending most your time on Reddit. Very normie tastes and Reddit has better cat gifs
Given how many of them seem to complain about hexbear emotes, its almost like they see the emotes as a negative.
And then… and then… THEY SENT ME A PIG POOPING ON ITS BALLS
incoherent sobbing
A strong centrally planned shitpost command economy
this whole site is a five year plan to develop productive forces for protracted people’s posting
