What are our thoughts regarding posts focusing on (potentially unsavoury) views held by the author of the series?

Is [email protected] community a good place to discuss them, or should we hold such discussions elsewhere?

    The wording was “popular”, not “most active”. By subscriber numbers alone I think the dormant Leaky Cauldron one is bigger?

    And the fediverse is big, I’m pretty sure that somewhere on mastodon you’d find a more popular group of people for this topic than here.

      Subscribers are not the best metric for community activity, a lot of communities have high subscribers counts but low activity for different reasons (e.g. inactive accounts having subbed a while ago)

      Leaky Cauldron one

      The subscribers there will soon be 0 as the instance will close in July (https://diagonlemmy.social/post/111137)

      And the fediverse is big, I’m pretty sure that somewhere on mastodon you’d find a more popular group of people for this topic than here.

      Does Mastodon properly support groups nowadays? That was still in progress last time I checked.

        Again, we’re talking semantics here. The original phrasing was “popular”, not “active”/“activity”.

        And when I say communities regarding mastodon, I’m not talking about the technical feature of groups but rather individuals interacting with each others in their posting.
