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

      They hate Reddit because Spez and Great Man Theory, not because of the actual structure and profit motive.

        Also they hate reddit because of capitalism but don’t realize that and consider themselves capitalists.

        "I hate how this website has gone to shit, injected adds into everything, and censored everything that isn’t squarely within the Overton window.

        Time to pack up and go to a website coded and maintened by literal communists and call everybody who thinks the democrats suck tankies."

          Yep, mentioning Marx becomes a struggle sesh. They are ultras when it comes to leftism, and right wingers when it comes to the US.
