I had an account on lemmy.one and now the instance has been down for a day or two so I made this new account. I also heard other small instances are dead or disappeared.

So which ones do you think will actually stick around for a long time?

ALSO, does anyone know how to get my subscriptions from lemmy.one and import it here? TIA!

Instances with

more than one admin
clear policies and active moderation
engaged user base
regular backups
no porn

...will stand a better chance than most.

No porn? Why?

.ca allows porn. You actually have to click "show NSFW" during sign up if you want to see it, so it's not on by default, and it's very easy to turn on/off if you want it.

I find that the instances that ban porn also ban a lot of other stuff that isn't bad. Feels like I'm in church and everything is being censored.

NSFW and Porn are not the same thing.

The marked content may contain graphic violence, pornography, profanity, nudity, slurs or other potentially disturbing subject matter.

Square rectangle sort of thing, no?

All porn is NSFW. But not all NSFW stuff is porn.

Yeah, it’s a terrible term that needs to be done away with.

Exactly my point. Thank you.
