Chapos are efficient. Why post a paragraph when one big emoji works?

source?

facts don't care about your feelings sweetie, hexbear.net has more real engagement than any other instance, sorry your bot posters don't count!

[–] Dr_Cog@mander.xyz 27 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm pretty sure that was a joke, lol

[–] Grownbravy@hexbear.net 28 points 1 year ago

I would’ve guessed 20x more.

We love our emotes picard-excited

I'm also impressed by feddit.de presence, Fediverse culture seems strong in Germany

[–] Cubes@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Anyone from Germany care to comment on why this is? Y'all seem to have such a large presence on here compared to others

[–] maynarkh@feddit.nl 30 points 1 year ago (8 children)

I'm from another nation-oriented instance that has an outsized presence, right next to Duitsland.

My guess is:

  • Germany is a big, populated country
  • People from DACH also gravitate towards feddit.de
  • The culture kinda gives itself to the project
  • The NL and the EU are the main funders of Lemmy

German-speaking countries in Europe. Deutschland (Germany), Austria and of course the Confœderatio Helvetica (Switzerland).

Curious about the blank stats for hexbear. Should this populate over several weeks or do they pull from OUR statistics and it just didnt take them yet?

[–] silent_water@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

we've got fewer active users but have an outsized post/comment count

[–] Grownbravy@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah, dunno how #10 accurately reflects our rank because we are far and away more active than many of these instances

[–] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is by monthly active users, not by posts

[–] Grownbravy@hexbear.net 18 points 1 year ago

So dont even have a month of federation yet

Okay, so you would be willing to explain some basic marxist ideas to the viewer then?

Great!

How do fixed capital, ttotroptf, and the primary mode of worker alienation under capital intersect?(As described by Marx and not successfully criticized up to the present day) This has multiple answers and one of them can be a one word answer.

That out of the way, on a personal note;

I work on two different grassroots campaigns because a nearby hospital is closing and the lead pipes are poisoning the communities children. I am heading up internal reorganization to make my org safer, and am donating most of my salary from my bullshit job that lets me post and organize for most of the day to socialist orgs, while surviving as a multiracial trans woman in a rural area of a deep red state. I'm currently reading socialist and anarchist texts written in the last 5 years, on hiatus from reading a book about the soviet dual monetary system because it is machine translated from Russian and is a slog.

I have more respect for the least educated hexbear slacktivists than I do for anti-communist "socialists" like yourself.

Log the fuck off and start from the basics again, because you've obviously misunderstood them based on all the dogshit takes I've seen from you. All the anarcho syndies I know who actually do shit would not get along with your sorry ass.

I wonder how many of the accounts on world are ones that are just left for dead as people moved around to other instances. I myself was day one on world but the outages became too much.

[–] Cocsam@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago

I was also on world but switched to lemm.ee when they defederated hexbear.
