I’m a bit confused at the explosive growth of Lemmy and the slower growth of Kbin. Do the stats reflect the reality or is there a problem with the data being fed back to the various stat hubs?

I know the difference is partly because Lemmy was a larger platform, and is better known but the growth of Kbin seems suprisingly flat while the community seems to be getting more and more active?

    Most people heard about Lemmy on reddit, and heard about kbin on lemmy, possibly after they already made an account.

    Im not going to not interact with Lemmy because of its developers but it was enough I decided id rather not be tied exclusively to their tankie ass politics.

        Questionable opinions about such diverse topics as:

        1. Is the Uygher genocide in China a thing?
        2. Is North Korea bad?
        3. Was the Russian invasion of Ukraine actually a noble attempt to liberate its people from Nazis?
