Lot of words typed for a person with nothing to say

Honestly it’s kinda sad how much people care about what instances other people are on, just because someone is on a certain instance that has some people who may have bad opinions and do certain things that aren’t right doesn’t mean everyone on that instance is to blame.
Secondly you obviously don’t hate the instance that much considering how much content you re upload from there, or are you just “getting your own back” because you think people on that instance shouldn’t be able to upload their content.
Thirdly the fediverse was designed to have multiple instances with multiple communities so trying to get other instances you specifically don’t like de-federated kinda goes against the point.
And finally you dislike .ml and there devs that much that you use a different instance on the platform they made. So going back to point 2 you obviously don’t hate them that much because you use the platform they made and also re upload content from that instance.
Why can’t people just enjoy the content lemmy has to offer instead of moaning about the few people that may have unsavoury opinions or views, the world is full of people with unsavoury opinions and views do you go out and look past all the good people or do you stress and care that much about the people who arnt so good?

Especially considering there are like twelve people on every instance combined

When I said every instance, I was including .ml.
But also I was being hyperbolic - you don’t have to prove that there are more than twelve Lemmy accounts

I think alien.top is a proxy for refit so those users are likely bot users that go in place of Reddit users

First, you didn’t pay attention to the meme at all, because if you had you would realize that I said .ml tankies specifically
Second, .ml is actively hurting Lemmy in the Fediverse now
Third, it’s mostly about the tankie “culture” (read pro-China, pro-Russia and even pro-NK) that the devs, admins and mods encourage and enforce. You can’t even post anything negative, no matter how backed by facts or deserving it is, about China or Russia without getting some sort of ban. China IS an authoritarian dictatorship masquerading as fake communism.
Fourth, .ml admins and mods doesn’t want Lemmy to grow even at a healthy pace, if it’s not growing in the direction they want (e.g. a tankie echo chamber).
Fifth, I have no other major issues or concern with any other instance that hasn’t been already addressed (eg hexbear, lemmygrad)

Like a politician you avoided my main point about you re-uploading every post you see on .ml and the fact that you are using the platform that the admins of .ml (also the lemmy devs) created.
re-uploading is ok it’s part of social media but specifically targeting certain people is just sad it’s like you hate what they do on .ml but you’ll re upload their content.
And if you hate their ideas and views then why use their platform?

So sorry I didn’t address every single thing on your wall of text, here:
Cross-posting, using a built-in Lemmy feature I might add (not exactly hiding it lmao) to non-.ml communities as part of an ongoing effort to grow non-.ml communities. I don’t target anyone specific like you seem to say.
I’m a wholehearted believer in the idea of separating the art from the artist where its use and/or viewing does not financially support the artist with views I disagree with. In addition, I don’t have control over the underlying software in use on any given instance AND it’s the Fediverse, even if I was on say a piefed instance, the .ml instance and content would still be federated. Because ya know, the Fediverse.

Wikipedia is not a source , and your ‘source’ does not support your argument. It states some claim it’s not a democracy, mainly it’s military enemies who themselves claim to be a democracy, but less than 10% of the populace gets any power.
