I don’t understand how Lemmy.world developers managed to surpass both Lemmy.ml and Beehaw.org instances in user activity.

minus-squareSpendies@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 years agoKinda surprised nobody mentioned this before. Like what is .ml? I’ve never heard of that. Lemmy.world is a much more approachable name. Honestly a lot of the lemmy instance names are really bad too.
