I use Feddit.it because it's an Italian instance so it's much easier for me to find content of my native language

latte.isnot.coffee is mine, I think it's the best end for your name you can hope for ;)

I just joined my own countries server. Works fine.

I like beehaw a lot. I think it’s natural for people to still be in the mindset of going to the “source”. And I admit I felt that way at the start of mastodon, but I found my home on fosstadon and understand.

I think it is OK. People need time to transition to this new way of doing things.

Yes and no, i signed up to different instances and even if i subscribed to the same federated communities, i see wildly different content, and the home on lemmy.ml is more engaging

I was advised by a redditor to join '.word' because ml was overwhelmed

Not really sure what the difference is tbh. I'm here interacting with an ml community so why not?

I'd like to know if I can make my own subreddit equivalent though?

Functionally it's not very different. Everyone on a different federated server can access all the other "subreddits." However, your account is hosted by the server you joined. If it were to go down, I suppose your account would disappear.

Good question, it varies by server. Beehaw.org for example limits sub creation to admins.
