      i think trending in this sense means lots of people have started subscribing to those communities, not that those communities have lots of posts

      edit: you are also able to hide communities in user settings

      Cars Malaysia is the most relevant and useful community on the whole entire internet. You take that back!

      was gonna point out the weird mishmash of communities in the trending box. idk who’s subbing to the islamic communities, certainly not many people from this instance.

      also, sorry for rukbut_dev being there. I would prefer that I could test @rukbut in private but there’s no setting to take communities private on lemmy. I could’ve also spun a private instance but that’s a lot of hassle I’d rather not have. nothing like testing in production!

        It’s the nature of how lemmy works i think. Like the question in the c/food the other day that would on reddit be posted in askculinary. This instance is very identifiably malaysian, so people might feel more comfortable making islamic communities here.

        I’mma just break out the popcorn if a problem comes up. But i don’t think anything should be done up and until someone is actually preaching extremism.
