胡椒羊毛 Pepperwool
Hi all :blobuwu: , my first post here at #mastodon. I've been using Twitter and Linkedin for my job... so suddenly a bit lost on what would be the main content to share here. Guess I'll just try to be creative.
從推特移民來惹。
其實本來在推特上面也不是那麼活躍，當初用Twitter、Linkedin 這些也只是為了工作用。現在沒有了這個需求，ㄧ下子也不知道該說啥。想到什麼就說什麼吧...
Puniko ?
@RyunoKi@layer8.space @pepperwool@layer8.space i interact with a bunch of japanese users from time to time and some chinese ones. but i wouldnt say i'm close to it. misskey.io and adjecent instances have a lot of japanese users.
honestly, i really dont know where the chinese part of fedi is concentrated
Ryuno-Ki
Welcome.
I'm aware of some Asian folks here.
Um, I believe @puniko is closer to that community. (Could be Japanese, not sure)
Otherwise watch out for Misskey users :)

@puniko @RyunoKi@layer8.space @pepperwool@layer8.space The Chinese part already has a well-established presence on Fedi for years, total number of users is around 100 K (?). But there are only few interactions with English instances. And due to Fedi's architecture, it means they're completely outside English Fedi's event horizon and practically undetectable, most people won't even know they exist. And due to fears of authority suppression, many can only reached via the protocol, the web page returns 404, this certainly does not help.
* m.cmx.im: general-purpose Chinese instance, 28.7K users, 10.9K active.
* wxw.moe: anime themed instance, 19.6K users, 5.59K active.
* acg.mn: anime theme instance, 2.43K users, 72 active.
* alive.bar: 27.3K users, 6.19K active.
* bgme.me: general-purpose instance, 2.96K users, 1.57K active.
* o3o.ca: 14.4K users, 4.95K active.
* me.ns.ci: 7.71K users, 1.3K active.
* mast.dragon-fly.club: 1.47K users.
* mao.mastodonhub.com: "the cat site", 14.5K users, 383 active. Founded by a social media personality on Chinese history and classical studies with many followers. However, the admin's ignorance on web hosting combined with stubbornness made it the ONLY Fedi server hosted inside Mainland China, and caused a huge controversy, including many blocks as the server could be seized by the authorities at any moment.
* donotban.com: "the Douban underground", a spin-off community by douban.com users, a social site (think Tumblr + IMDB + GoodReads) with a young liberal userbase highly critical of the government, and is subjected to frequently censorship, thus the pun "douBAN". User count hidden for safety. Likely huge.
* digforfire.org: art and culture community, on music and film, 796 users, 93 active
* moresci.sale: academic research themed site, 545 users, 323 active, the Chinese equivalent of scholar.social.
* utopia.cool: 347 users, 235 active.
* 9kb.me: 640 users, 292 active
* allships.run: fans of the anime Legend of the Galactic Heroes, 260 users.
* ramen-fsm.eu.org: Flying Spaghetti Monster believers, 662 users, 318 active.

And it's not Fedi without LGBTQ+ sites. Here are just what I can remember for now, there are at least 5+ sites:
* m.hitorino.moe: Honorable mention, now closed due to an unfortunate series of events, 1K (?) users. One of the earliest instance. Had some of the most creative people I've seen, much like the English "anarchist programmer catgirl" Fedi.
* biplus.date: Everyone says Fedi is a dating site, we now have our proof right there. 544 users, 236 active.
* hub.mtf.party: 391 users, 40 active.
* kazv.moe: admin was once a Pleroma dev, the site now runs on its own Pleroma fork.

I'm not familiar with the Taiwanese Fedi, but there is one for sure...
* g0v.social: Taiwanese civil liberty & free software group, highly influential. Cofounder Audrey Tang is the world's top Perl hacker and currently the Minister of Digital Affairs in the government. 5.11K users, 927 active.
