What instance of Lemmy would you recommend to use, lemmy world or something else? (lemmy.world)

I'm still trying to get used to Lemmy; the main thing confusing me is the federated bit.

I just want to access Lemmy and its content; how do I do that? Currently I'm just going to old.lemmy.world and using that as a starting point.

Is there another instance you would recommend as the default one?

The two main reasons I ask are:

I want to know if there are things I am simply missing out on and there's a better way to browse Lemmy.
I really don't like cloudflare and have it disabled in Javascript. I don't want to leave it enabled for lemmy.world.

Just make accounts wherever and stick with the one that you like the most tbh. That's the beauty of the fediverse, the many options can seem daunting but you don't have to choose one! I have this account to interact with lemmy.ml directly, I have a blahaj account to interact with the wider fediverse while getting transphobes and the worst of the reactionaries filtered I have a hexbear account to interact with hexbear. I like the hexbear community the most, it's probably the most one that is a community within itself with multiple sub-communities but it's of course a matter of taste. The most choice you get from lemmy.zip I believe which is the most widely federated one and stays out of drama. There is dbzer0 the more anarchist oriented instance. Lemmy.world is the most reddit one I feel like both in tone and moderation. But just make acounts wherever it doesn't matter.
