Just saw this on AskLemmy at .ml, thought this and chuckled, and now here we are.
Will take the opportunity to thank our admins for what they do, and all you humans for being here and generally being cool.

I'm surprised lemmy.ml isn't on there, it seems really big from my limited experience.
No really, .ml isn't even in top 10? Did they opt-out from these statistics or are they that small?

Edit: well I guess they really are that small. But total posts they have at 147k, what is going on here?
https://fedidb.org/network/instance/lemmy.ml
so small and yet so loud
Honestly I think their higher upvote / post ratio is a better formula. Most of Lemmy has too little engagement on it's posts for my tastes.
based on the creation date advertised by the instance, lemmy.ml exists since 2019-04-20. lemmy.world exists since 2023-06-01.
Post on an instance are not necessarily the right metric to how active the users of an instance are, just how many large and active communities are there.
Huh, you're right. In fairness this is cropped from an image shared on the AskLemmy .ml thread, so I'm not 100% sure what's going on there. Edit: Image is legit. Weird...
They're just loud. Like a terrier.
