Fediverse

definitely worth taking a look at different instances stance on defederation. after the whole ordeal with lemmy.world defederating with hexbear prematurely its worth taking the time to find an instance that aligns with your ideals and won't remove communities you may find valuable. I personally dont align with hexbear's politics but I think that its important to have an open federation policy.

For me, I would want to to federate and not be defederated by with Lemmygrad and Hexbear, while also having the same for things like aussie.zone, pathfinder.social, slrpnk.net, and the larger instances so I can pick out good communities from them. Stability matters more than size for me, I have no issues with the all feed and actually have had to block some communities due to spam or lack of interest as it is.

Also, is it the case that it only shows communities someone is subscribed to in all, or is it discovered communities?

1. No tankies.

That’s pretty much it. I went with kbin.

how do i know if my instance is using the Lemmy Community Seeder?

i went regional for a friendly region in my main language. It has a comunity for pudus which gives it extra points tbh. !pudu@feddit.cl if interested.

I've just got one criteria: I host 😀

General-purpose Lemmy instance. New users and communities welcome! Has upvoting and downvoting. Also, federated with most instances.

I usually use my lemmy.world account, but with the recent downtimes there, I've been using my alt account more. I choose this one because it's somewhat local to me, and it's nice to be able to see more somewhat local news and info.

I went with dbzer0 for two main reasons - pirates have a long history of maintaining server infrastructure, and joining a smaller instance fights centralization.

Broad federation, low conflict.

No power tripping mods.

I kinda picked lemmy.world at random but I use sh.itjust.works too
