Oh what I wish that would have been a table.
Nice post but hard to read. How about using tables?
head 1 head 2 body 1 body 2 like this:
| head 1 | head 2 | | --- | --- | | body 1 | body 2 |Edit: are we sure the data is correct? For example; Lemmy.ml has 16 communities over 10k. Which are linux, memes, asklemmy, technology, worldnews, privacy, opensource, gaming, fediverse, unixporn, linux_gaming, reddit, science, lemmy, selfhost, jerboa.
I’m not thrilled about the concentration on lemmy.world, and it’s no coincidence that most of my posts are to my home instance and a growing community on lemmy.zip.
I’ll admit to trying to have it both ways, though. I still post on !games@lemmy.world because it could be a draw for new users, and I’d rather have a robust population on a concentrated Lemmy than zero growth (and I’m not the type to discuss world news/politics in this setting).
