It makes sense, all the posts I find from hexbear are a couple of months old. It is a bit annoying, because when I hit explore in Voyager and sort by size, thalf of the communities are from hexbear.. Maybe @TheDude@sh.itjust.works has an idea why it behaves like this?

Hexbear used to be federated with sh.itjust.works. if you defederate, the old posts still continue to exist, hence the communities also still continuing to show.

I tried removing a bunch of the old hexbear communities. Did that help at all?

Also sorting communities by total subscribers is a bad system. It's more useful to sort by monthly active users imo.

You can use lemmyverse to sort by active users.
