I wouldn’t stress too much about it, friend. If you’re really stuck just make an account on a Lemmy instance- there are plenty of apps in dev, there is a sizable user base, and it has a good layout.
I would also recommend making an account on kbin and Mastodon, though, just so you can try different layouts. You should be able to view and subscribe to any federated content, but those instances have different posting styles and vibes you might (or might not) like better. Once you have a handle on where you might like to settle you can simply deactivate your extra accounts.
What about posts with media? All the instances have the same "throughput" ?
From what I have seen, I see bunch of links pointing to external services (imgur, youtube and so on), but I don't why this happens. In Reddit the content appears to be hosted by Reddit itself...
I think this is another feature that is being worked on, but at the moment there are a LOT of features being worked on lol.
