Pretty much everyone I see is on lemmy.ml. Why aren't people moving to other instances? I see thisproblems on Matrix too.

I created my first Lemmy accounts in two instances hosted by people near me. I've found some problems to interact with people in other instances, except for lemmy.ml.

It could be some federation lack between instances.I don't know.

The maintenance, support and moderation of the instanc are also important to choose it for the daily use.

Finally I created an account in lemmy.ml and it's the only one I'm using now.

There were some major bugs with federation that were fixed in Lemmy 0.16. If you tried other instances before that version, it would be worth giving it another try now.

Ok. Thank you. Let's try again!

Like @nutomic@lemmy.ml said, there were major issues with federation up until recently, but they have been completely resolved from what I can tell now.
