    Are we sure it’s counting 1.5 M users and not 1.5 M memes posted by picard, pug, and squid?

      Just wouldn’t want any newcomers to the history communities to up and think the place was dead! Lemmy cannot live on Linux alone 🙏

          I answer on AskHistorians, but don’t post there. But I’d love to see activity there too! Mostly I run three history meme communities (HistoryMemes, RoughRomanMemes, and ShermanPosting), and four communities for sharing historical images of interest (HistoryPorn [not my choice of name, it’s just for photos], HistoryIllustrations, HistoryRuins, and HistoryArtifacts)

            That’s great. The history communities on the other site were such great quality on average and I miss them. How do you have time to do all that?
