That’s easy: Lemmy.ninja! Small, nimble, active, and awesome!
Edit: It occurs to me I should probably list some more reasons why Lemmy.ninja is so awesome:
“Active” is a bit of a stretch. Although, it’s federated with the communities making content, so it doesn’t really matter.
What’s a fair way to compare an instance with 51 accounts to one with 108,800 accounts? Average users per month relative to total user base seems pretty fair to me. The average users per month for our five biggest communities is 15.29. If I do the same calculation for your home instance, I get 7.12. So yes, we’re small, but we’re active.
“Active” is an adjective. You intentionally left out the active part (posts, comments). When you consider we’ve existed for less the month and have 45 posts in Boomer Shooter… That’s 1.5 posts per day, our first month in existence. That’s activity. That’s active. Your cynicism not withstanding Team Red has existed for almost two weeks.. It’s growing faster than any of the other communities on this board… Because “activity.” Really, if you understand activity and what it looks like and how it scales… We might believe you know what you’re talking about… Might.
