The biggest surprise for me was the https://hexbear.net count, an instance I hardly interact with.

Wouldn't comment or user count be a slightly better metric? Oh oh, do all 3 side by side please!

EDIT: Woah this page looks totally different on desktop than mobile.

OP, you know you don't have you use a table, right? You can make a bulleted list.

everyone goes to the most popular one because they think that's the one with all the things on it that's how the internet works that's what everyone's doing

Damn, my hexbear filter is getting a real workout!

That contrast makes it impossible to read some labels

One amusing bit re: hexbear, it's been around almost as long as lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml, but it seems was only added to the tracker last year, as it shows up as 12 months old, I have to imagine it's including posts/comments from before that timeframe because bozhe moi:

Even if you divide the hexbear comments by 4 they'd still be in the top ~~3~~ 2 excluding the reddit repost bot. Yappers.
