As far as we’re concerned there is no “main” instance, we don’t want there to be one, and we explicitly state that lemmy.ml is not that. What is lemmy.ml?
Thanks for that, didn't know! I was unaware that there was an official stance on the matter, though even nutomic makes the point that it's easy to conflate "flagship instance" with "main instance."
The core Lemmy devs admin this instance and use it as a guinea pig for new software releases, but otherwise it’s not special.
Gotcha.
