Thanks to anyone who approves me to join for Lemmy through this lemmy.ml instance.

P.S., I tried three times to sign up through the lemmy.world instance, but it failed. 🥲

I’d recommend you persevere with getting a lemmy.world one and use that as your main one.

I would advise against lemmy world and .ml, .world is already way too big, the day they fail, all lemmy will collapse. Place like lemm.ee or sopuli or Blahaj, or Fedia if you prefer mbin are way nicer.

That said, .ml works good enough to discover lemmy, don't panic too much

Seconding this. I originally came from lemmy.world, but eventually mained on lemm.ee after some really bad downtime issues around July/August 2023.

I also keep accounts on other instances as a backup, but I sort of use them as separating different interests, like my lemmy.dbzer0 account is for the tech-related interests, while this one is the more general one. If ever I follow more anime-related communities, I might make one on an anime-centric instance.
