check https://fedidb.org/current-events/threadiverse instead, we have MUCH more users than you think.
Edit: also note that beehaw isn't completely defederated. They only defederated from sh.itjust.works and Lemmy.world.
Obviously censorship of any variety is a slippery slope, but holy hell some of what's listed there is problematic. If I joined Beehaw in the hopes of enjoying a safe community for various minority groups like they are trying to promote, I'd feel decidedly un-safe seeing posts from skinhead instances and others with outright racial slurs in the names.
What is the skinhead one? It said it was pro lgbt?
I decided to check on the skinhead one, because maybe it's not nazis, but....it's nazis.
i figured it was. i guess they just post that to lure people in or something.
The world is varied. It's probably better to accept it and start living in it, instead of hiding in a corner.
They already have to do that in the real world. There is no reason they need to put up with it online too.
Holy cow! It would probably be easier do just allow those they want to see lol (whitelist instead of blacklist)
Oh nice, you can edit the link and run it for any instance.
Lemmy.ml Lemmy.world Lemmy.ee Sh.itjust.works
Lmao that's nuts. I'm just glad lemmy.ee isn't in their list, they're federated with everyone :D
Also, it's nice that I can see your edit! Edits didn't seem to federate from lemmy.ml.
That's total users tho, I think OP is referring to lemmy.world users only.
They linked to fediverse.observer for the entirety of Lemmy tho ๐ค
the 28.5K (now almost 29K) I mentioned are for lemmy.world only obviously yes, I linked to fediverse.observer so that one can also check the growth of the other Lemmy instances ๐
OP link is split per instance and they're referring to lemmy.world numbers, not the entirety of lemmy.
This is so exciting, each day I feel more and more at home in the fediverse
