“Joining the fediverse isn’t hard bro, your instance doesn’t matter, just pick one.”
It’s true, especially in cases like this when users have 3 months to pick another instance.
“Stop using Lemmy.world, we need to redistribute to smaller instances.”
Also true. Should LW go down in 90 days in a similar way, is it better if LW has 50% of the users, or a smaller number?
!privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com as a replacement for !privacyguides@lemmy.one
We always put out calls before (major) releases, but very few ppl actually help test
Where are those posted? I think I always miss them, happy to help with testing before major releases
Amazing!
Hey,
I was the one recommending this community. Seems like there are 3 or 4 posts a day, so it doesn’t seem like adding beginner posts would be an issue.
Lemmy has a smaller userbase, there isn’t enough people for very niche communities.
Also, feel free to join !fedigrow@lemm.ee
Sombody from lemmy.ml is gonna reply to me not knowing they are defeded.
Happens a lot with lemmynsfw users, as that instance is quite defederated. .
A label could maybe help indeed
Welcome to Lemmy, here are a few pointers to help you settle in
Also, why not point to the pinned post of !communitypromo@lemmy.ca ?
Well said

There are definitely around 50 usernames I see in a lot of communities, or sometimes just in one. Feels nice to feel like talking to real humans compared to bots.
“New Comments” helps with that
much more so than on reddit or Lemmy.
I still see you quite often 😄
Yes, see this comment: https://reddthat.com/comment/17985896
Please don’t compare me to a Reddit mirror instance 🥲
LW run was running 0.19.3 for more than a year after the 0.19.4 and later releases, preventing the LW users of using the new Lemmy features.
Agree, but if you filter https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list by Active Users, and take any instance in the top 20, you’re as safe as on LW.
Lemmy.zip for instance provides monthly transparency reports on !home@lemmy.zip , such as this one: https://lemmy.zip/post/35411310
I’ve switched instances several times since June 2023. I keep the same username and profile pic, so people still recognize me, and I still recognize other users who switched instances, or even platforms (e.g. switching from Lemmy to Piefed).
You’ll see similar reactions of people not on LW every time LW takes a controversial decision: https://lemmy.world/post/24135976
