None, it's all 1 big network. Each instance is a different flavor of the same thing.
Tangent: I don't understand why existing in an instance somehow makes a user any different than anyone else. Yet, I hear people saying things like "typical lemm.ml user" or crap about Hexbear users. It's like people are taking the ideologies of the instance owners and labeling anyone in it to have the same ideologies. Where did this come from?
Well those instances are very specific and you can assume a lot about the users who signed up there. Other instances seem to have normal spread of people.
Bias is real, does not demand bigotry, and is sometimes existentially beneficial.
We shouldn't make assumptions, but on the other hand if a user doesn't want people to assume they're a Trekkie, maybe don't sign up to StarTrek.website.
