I'd recommend a smaller community to help spread the load. I originally signed up on .world but they were having some growing pains (And a disgruntled idiot ddosing them) so I moved to .ca which helped tremendously.

I really disagree. For learning lemmy for average people, big instance is best.

There is a point where people who stick around are likely to make a new "real" account on a different smaller server, after they know what they want to browse.

Basically big instances should be like training wheels.

Yeah tbh this is how I did it and I consider myself tEcH sAvVy - still started with .world because I didn't know where else to go.

I went to iusearchlinux.fyi and came back to .world about a week ago. It seems to be doing very well now.

You need to know the special password for .ca

I'm Canadian anyway, so I have it memorized.

Hello Canadian, I’m maple syrup!

[-] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

We may be related, I'm 40% maple.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

I see! I’m actually 33% polar bear and 66% maple, we may be not so distant cousins!
