Why are all the answers here from FMHY? It was like 20th on the list in terms of popularity when I joined. I chose it because it had fewer restrictions - users can create their own communities and, most importantly, downvote (the chart I looked at said some didn’t have downvotes??). Also I assume pirates know how to run a server.

My guess is because the default view is local, and this was posted on FMHY, so a bigger percentage of gold on that instance saw the question. Lots of folks flocking in from Reddit haven't figured everything out yet, and are only going to see this if they select "all" and scroll far enough to see it (like I did).

I don't know the reason why fmhy instance had more people seeing this but the question was posted on lemmy.ml, so it's not in Local of fmhy instance.

Obviously I haven't figured everything out - I thought I saw that was the instance. Okay, thank you.

This is not the first thread where I have only seen the FMHY comments while accessing through FMHY. It seems sometimes a thread doesn't sync comments from other instances for many hours (or ever? IDK).

Yeah same, I'm from FMHY as well and I'm really confused as to why everyone is saying FMHY.

I picked it because I skipped over the first couple large communities looking for smaller ones that allowed everything. Didn't really care about the piracy aspect at all.

I’m starting to feel we should delete this whole thread and replace it with how much FMHY sucks and is the worst instance ever the admins are literal trash pandas please don’t come here. I like it small.
