For context, I tend to use the "all local and federated communities" view, especially on my Lemmy.ml account. I like to see what's going on with the broader Lemmy network, especially on my not-Lemmygrad "normie" account. Just now I noticed that there are now plenty of Hexbear posts when viewed from Lemmy.ml, whereas previously it had been pretty much all .world posts all the time. Hexbear is starting to actually displace .world on the other instances' federated networks!
Well we're going to have to produce it, then, and subject it to empirical observation to see how bougie it is. If it starts off slow, maybe dabbling in penny stocks after work, we can proceed cautiously but if it buys a controlling interest in exxon we have to shut the project down immediately.
