Comment on Lemmy's gaining popularity, so I thought new people should see this.

Honestly I think the .ml folks have shown themselves to be such zealots that they should be considered a potemtial security threat to the broader fediverse.
The more places defederate from them, the more opportunity and initiative there will be for alternatives to their largest communities to grow.

This is the most hyperbolic take yet 😂 I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious fediverse memes.

One of the problems is that Lemmy.ml is literally run by some of the people who developed Lemmy.

It also has less users than sh.itjust.works and lemm.ee. And way less compared to lemmy.world but I guess they aren’t linked on the joinlemmy site for some reason

It was removed from it to avoid over centralization on the fediverse. It already has like 80% of users

Fully anonymous porn viewing is something very much coveted, and there is also a huge industry whose target audience is net denizens so you could also make an argument that the number of users is inflated by the industry users.

I mean, I don’t believe it’s really that anonymous, and it’s an actual “industry”, more of people posting their photos.
