      They’re never going to defederate from .ml. That’s the main Lemmy instance and the one the developers of Lemmy itself run.

        And that’s why people are bailing on .world. Having a lot of accounts isn’t the same thing as creating a lot of content. .world is emptying. And this is part of the reason.

          .ml only has 600 users per day. It’s a non issue.

          World is emptying because 95% of users don’t actually interact in the first place. No platform will succeed when you only have a few users actually creating content.

            .world is emptying because people are leaving for instances that don’t openly support .ml and that have them blocked.

            I see these people all the time saying as much.

              Like where? I looked at the top instances, and all except lemmy.zip show a similar drop in MAU. And lemmy.zip hasn’t blocked lemmy.ml.
