How did Lemmy.world become more popular than Lemmy.ml?

I don't understand how Lemmy.world developers managed to surpass both Lemmy.ml and Beehaw.org instances in user activity.

And ml is?

the national tld for Mali, but the lemmy ml owners chose it for a "Marxist-Leninist" reference. no kidding.

fun fact - they* also deny genocides committed by (even nominally) communist regimes.

*a lot of them, and even those who don't actively, still stick with the goons who do.

Oh dear, and I thought it was somehow related to machine learning/AI stuff

The real answer here in the comments. Glad I went with world. Though I only did it because it seemed like more people would gravitate toward thag name than the others.

That's awesome. I am also a Communist that denies genocides. I guess I better pop on over to lemmy.ml
