    On another note, don’t you think it’s a little weird that someone from world is saying to not follow small instances?

    Where is that comment? I didn’t see it. Maybe they’re thinking back when it was really hard to get new communities federated, but it’s not so bad these days, and even the medium sizes instances already have tons of communities already federated.

    anyways I think we should’ve give people too much trouble as long as they’re joining the Fediverse lol, they can move instances as they get a feel for it

      I’ve personally had an issue with a world admin in the past, that’s why I picked up on it. I don’t seem to be having as much issues lately, so maybe they’ve chilled. It’s the advertising part that kind of bugs me for their instance instead of Lemmy in general:

      Really if you’re telling someone about it, you just tell them one of the bigger, better instances. Don’t send them to that “pick a server” thing. I don’t know if I’m allowed to link it here, but the name of the software and the word “world” with a period in between is a fine server for both Lemmy and Mastodon.

      I went from a heavy, daily reddit user to making half a dozen comments here in a year. All my activity is now over there, outside of search results.
