    @[email protected] you’ve been posting a lot of very average content in the last couple of hours.

    This should be taken down. Australia is 28m people this year. Even Auckland has 1.7m.

    Not sure why a 14d old account would just spam a bunch of infographics based on bad or outdated information on a Sunday.

      I’m so confused the source is: https://www.visualcapitalist.com/ranked-oceanias-most-populated-cities/

      But Published 2 days ago on January 8, 2026

      What?

      This infographic ranks Oceania’s 30 most populated cities in 2025 using data from the UN World Population Prospects 2025.

      I cannot figure out how to get the numbers after 2 minutes of trying but we don’t need the UN we have the ABS:

      How the UN got the numbers they did I have no idea

      Happy to take it down since there seems to be consensus over its inaccuracy.

      I post more than just infographics. Please take a wider view than the span of a couple hours. I’ve created a structure for myself to gather infographics on a weekly basis on weekends when I’m off work. So yes, you can expect them to be posted on a Saturday or Sunday. It’s not my intention to share infographics based on bad or outdated information. I would’ve thought the UN World Urbanization Prospects is a reliable source of information.

        *proceeds to not take it down.

        Listen. You’re not making this place better by serial posting low quality links to daily mail and shitty infographics. You’re making Lemmy worse. And seeing how your posting behaviour mimics that of a paid troll farm employee, I’ll just add you (as the first user ever) to my block list. Which I have a feeling I’ll be doing again with a different username in about 2-3 weeks time.

    I feel like a big chunk of this map is missing. Where Indonesia?
