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

Community Count:
Community Users:
They openly state that their primarily goals in federation is to be obnoxious trolls, and boy howdy do they put a lot of energy into it. They are first and foremost, just obnoxious. It’s like 20% teenagers going through their edgy anti establishment phase, and then the rest are right wing, Russian, and Chinese trolls playing soggy waffle with each other. They pretend to be super serious about LGBT issues but then simp for Hamas, Iran and Russia. And one of their tankie leaders just got caught calling trans issues “western pink washing.”
It’s just a mess. It’s probably a bit overblown, but the community is legitimately annoying if nothing else.
Your whole post is made up, but this is at least a specific claim that also didn’t happen. Pics or you’re talking shit.

They take transphobia very seriously there. There was a whole thing about lemm.ee defederation, they defedded from blahaj because of that etc.
