    the fact they think so many trans people are out and about fascists is fucking wild. plus they talk about blahaj being ran by trans people, which is true, but also ignore that the trans community on lemmy is largely here, and for very obvious reasons

      10% trans users on lemmygrad + 30% from hexbear, assuming we have no crossover (and I don’t think we have much) means 40% of our combined user base is trans (or 20 idk), WAY above world averages and way above what most instances can boast.

      Compared to the lemmyverse as a whole however I’m not sure of the proportion our two instances represent, we’d have to look at active users on all relevant websites

      Still waiting for blahaj to finally run a demos survey btw.

        … that’s not how percentages work

        lemmygrad seems to be trans-friendly, and hexbear certainly is, but you can’t just add percentages together to get the total percentage

        🤓 um, ackshually, it would be 20%, because sample percentages are averaged into each other when added, not counting for the actual numerical difference between the instances’ userbases

        Uhh I’m a dummy but wouldn’t it be under 30% with the exact number depending on exact userbase sizes of 'grad and 'bear?
