Good catch. I’ve added it to the summary. Thanks.

Wow the ads. I assumed everyone was already using some sort of ad blocker.

From the article, he has to put up the money in order to appeal:

Though he has vowed to appeal both cases, he must immediately grapple with the enormous sums that are at stake: To keep both judgments from being enforced while he appeals, he must put up the entire amount in either cash or bonds, according to legal experts. Usually, defendants must put up such bonds within 30 days of a final judgment to keep the plaintiff from collecting, experts said.

If he doesn’t appeal and doesn’t pay his penalty, NY has already indicated they’ll seize his assets:

New York Attorney General Letitia James told ABC News on Tuesday that she will seek to seize some of the former president’s assets if he’s unable to cover the bill from Judge Arthur Engoron’s Feb. 16 ruling.

That sucks. Looks like they actually went out of their way to create that account a few days after yours.

Try asking @sunaurus@lemm.ee who created it.

Agreed

Its admin @sunaurus@lemm.ee wrote all about it here: https://lemm.ee/post/26

FYI, Lemmy doesn’t count lurkers as active users. Here’s how Lemmy counts active users:

An active user is someone who has posted or commented on our instance or community within the last given time frame. For site counts, only local users are counted. For community counts, federated users are included.

That was probably my post :)

So true. This is straight from Lemmy’s documentation:

An active user is someone who has posted or commented on our instance or community within the last given time frame. For site counts, only local users are counted. For community counts, federated users are included.

Wait, where does it say that lemmy.world active users is tapering off?

Margot, you are the best novelty account.

That’s great! I should play around with subscribing to lemmy with my mastodon account.

So cool that you commented from mastodon.

What’s a number you’re comfortable with?

Yeah, you’re not wrong. Too bad we don’t have unique user data to know for sure.

That’s why I sorted by active users (users who comment or post, not lurkers) instead to get a more accurate picture with the given data. For example, sh.itjust.works has more users than beehaw.org, but it’s ranked below beehaw because of fewer active users.

I think eventually instances with a lot of duplicate accounts will slowly fall out of the top rankings due to inactivity. That’s why I chose to look at just the top 10.

lemmy.one is currently at #13 with 7132 users and 1170 active users.

midwest.social is currently #22 with 1621 accounts and 499 monthly active users.
