Just wanted to share a thread for those who don't regularly venture out of the bear site. Can't cross-post since it's defederated. It's small but has some numbers about community counts, active users, etc and links to more info from https://lemmyverse.net/. Thought it was notable that Hexbear shows up no matter how you sort it.

OP image is community count sorted by active users in the last month.

Edit: sorted by comments

They say that because we post like zoomers and gen-a (not really we just aren't baffled by their memes).

In the vein of "only a Chinese or Russian person could be disagreeing with me right now about China or Russia" comes the new "only one of those dang kids today could be disagreeing with me right now about how kids today suck."

My favorite thing is them believing that everyone from Russia or China must have hated it there, and while there are some expats that are like that, most of the ones I've met (outside of Indians) really like or miss their country of origin. I'm not saying they are perfect (far from it) but they seem like no more totalitarian hellholes than the U.S.

Also you are talking to ex pats and emigrants who are predisposed to disliking their home country.

All the Chinese people who really like China stay there and don’t go on the English speaking internet to argue

TBH I know a number that sneak through the firewall to troll westerners, they're pretty cool. Some don't want to visit here tho cause the firewall blocks this domain. Maybe if someone reopens chapo chat and puts a Chinese interface on it we'd get a lot like that

I know some trans Chinese commies too

An infusion of Chinese shitposters would definitely be a nice boost to our posting powers

Importing Gojo-tier shitposters to change the very world of political shitposting

This would be pretty easy I think, seeing as we already have next.hexbear.net

Yea some people were trying to change the next domain to something like next.chapo.chat for the chinese users but it still needs some work

BEGONE CHILD! Let the old gays, trans-femmes and occasional cis white guys post in peace!

Sidenote; Also zoomers are literally starting to graduate college rn, so still young but not like, 14 year old teenager young, the real big thing is that we, unlike .world or .trek, are not, for the most part, tech people. And if we are, we are usually tech-pessimists. Creates a huge posting culture difference.

Exactly why I can’t get into the rest of the fediverse that well

I’m the only person brushing the cobwebs under your chins out, show some respect smh my head :(

[-] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 12 points 4 months ago

I was going to eat the food in there later!

[-] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 12 points 4 months ago

Yep they have a lot of techno-optimists and techno-utopians and neoliberal “everything is getting better in aggregate” types
