Shame about World's stability issues. Probably brought on by its popularity.
Better to be broken and full than stable and empty.

It might be a little cringe but I embrace being a lemming.
Migrated here from RIF (RIP), lemmy.world being suggested on top of the how to join guide definitely played a part in choosing this instance along with all the recommendations from other users.
Definitely feel much more inclined to comment here than on Reddit as of late, all the regurgitated meme shitposts and karma farming bot comments were getting really old. If it takes donating / paying a sub to keep Lemmy human discussion focused, that's what I will do.
Heck yeah, hello everyone fleeing reddit!
Hi new person from reddit here! Can't wait for this place to grow
I'd move to a closer instance, if I new they were in it for the long run and not shut down when they get bored after a few months. What happens if the instance I'm registered to decides to shut down?
