    If you read the rest of that sentence, you’ll (maybe) figure out that there isn’t any comparative statements there- just pointing out that hexbear mostly originated from users banned from Reddit, for being toxic and disruptive.

      If it wasn’t a comparative argument, then what’s wrong with my original statement?

        If some random instance with one user makes like 100s of communities, will it count in the graph?

        Yeah it will, that’s the problem with using community count as a measure for the activity of a given instance.

        Hexbear is interesting because like you said, they’re very self contained.
