For me, I think it was a combination of not understanding the system and not knowing anything about any instances. Which ones can you trust to not just shut down and make you loose your data?
This, I wanted to join an instance with management I somewhat agreed with on matters of federation and had longevity. I didn’t want to join beehaw or lemmy.one for the first reason; and the others don’t really have the longevity to see how admins will react in certain cases.
Am super new. What happens with my account if "my" Lemmy instance shuts down? What are my safeguards?
