My First Post on Lemmy (lemmy.ml)

Thanks to anyone who approves me to join for Lemmy through this lemmy.ml instance.

P.S., I tried three times to sign up through the lemmy.world instance, but it failed. 🥲

Keep trying on other instances unless your views align with .ml. Otherwise you'll be automatically deemed a tankie by a lot of people and that might alter your experience on the fediverse.

Welcome to Lemmy!

Thanks for the advice, mate. But, can I simply move to the other instances or I need to make a new account in that particular instance that I want to move?

You'll need to sign up for a new account on the other instance. I'd recommend you persevere with getting a lemmy.world one and use that as your main one. Keep the one you've got in case of an lemmy.world outage.

Content is generally shared amongst the main instances so you'll generally be able to see the same stuff wherever you create an account. Most of the Lemmy apps have multi-account functionality so you can add both.

I guess I’ll stick to .ml instance because it’s seem valuable, limited and rare compared to others.

The unfortunate reality is that nobody can tell you why lemmy.ml is a shitshow in this thread, because they will get banned for it. Just take that information as you will.

Alright, I'll say it. It's because we're all Russian shills here

Also, depending on your interests, if you do make accounts on other servers, check our their population, location (for different language options) and uptime %.
