I kinda dig this new (compared to Reddit) "friendly competition" dynamic between servers.
I'm on two, this and sopuli.xyz - which I joined on a whim before even knowing what lemmy was. I'm pretty sure my personal statement was merely "I miss usenet". And, it's weird, but the community search function is...inconsistent at best. I've tried searches on three different instances for a common term and come up with nothing (sopuli), 4 communities (.world), and 6 communities (.ml). .world seems like a more generic fit and, um, yeah - no personal statement.
Exactly why I choosed lemmy.world. I looked for something less busy, but justification for account? C'mon...
The email requirement was annoying but this instance is fast.
Some villainous instances should be defederated tho.
I wrote a essay with a million grammatical errors, then decided I'd prefer to have my account on a instance that is smaller and in the EU as I have that option :)
Also part of it was anxiety of who saw and approved π
I picked lemmy.one at random. Somewhat reduced features for some reason, but otherwise functional. I'm not really clear on what the advantages and disadvantages of any give instance might be.
Here's a list https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances/
Lemmy.one doesn't allow creation of communities, you cannot downvote and three other instances are blocked.
I've been having a good time on vlemmy.net. It's small, has a fairly active admin, and seems to be fostering a healthy community with a reasonable number of restrictions.
me too lol. no ill intentions but just cba to apply for an account
You haven't seen the lemmygrad join requirements.
i wrote about two or three sentences for every question, neatly formatted into three tiny paragraphs, got accepted within 5 minutes!
I signed up for both lemmy.ml and lemmy.world instances. I actually got accepted in like 12 hours on lemmy.ml which is pretty good despite the small team and the flood of new users.
I didnβt know there was an entrance quiz on the others!
I tried signing up here twice and wrote an essay both times and didnβt get accepted before I found lemmy.world. Thatβs alright I love it here anyway
Same π
Before I got in here, I tried to get into there. Glad they didn't let me in!
Lemmy's lazy world!
