Well I'm running my own no.lastname.nz
Just like @frozen@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz it is mostly just myself that uses it, but reg is open. Admined from New Zealand and the server is in Australia
The reason I picked sh.itjust.works has my backup. Because I only heard good things about them. My main is lemmy.world.
Links to:
Sh.itjust.works is my backup too. I signed up for it first because ease of access, but then I found mander.xyz which is more in line with my interests.
General-purpose Lemmy instance. New users and communities welcome! Has upvoting and downvoting. Also, federated with most instances.
definitely worth taking a look at different instances stance on defederation. after the whole ordeal with lemmy.world defederating with hexbear prematurely its worth taking the time to find an instance that aligns with your ideals and won't remove communities you may find valuable. I personally dont align with hexbear's politics but I think that its important to have an open federation policy.
how do i know if my instance is using the Lemmy Community Seeder?
Probably ask your admin in the meta community
Did not know about that seeder. Super useful tool! Thanks for sharing.
I went to sign up. There was a notification that advised me to not use the main servers and listed others. I picked one randomly and I've been happy since. I pay them through Patreon voluntarily because they deserve support but they don't solicit. You have to dig a little to find it.
Kbin is superior
Seriously, what's the difference? If you are accessing and contributing to the same data pool, what's the difference besides the UI?
I haven't used kbin, so I haven't seen the difference yet.
we have access to mastodon feeds, as well. we can also block entire instances. the default site works very, very well as a PWA, the base interface has more settings options.
Thanks!
kbin is a lot more than just "a different lemmy interface", it also has an entire microblogs like system that allows you to make mastodon-like posts, and the reputation system is different (upvotes and downvotes don't affect how high up a post is shown, boosts are a kbin feature that does affect reputation, and also shows it to anyone who follows you)

I see the appeal, but the lack of apps is a dealbreaker for many. I know Artemis is in beta, but the dev having to build it without an API is a high entry barrier

No power tripping mods.
I usually use my lemmy.world account, but with the recent downtimes there, I've been using my alt account more. I choose this one because it's somewhat local to me, and it's nice to be able to see more somewhat local news and info.
I went with dbzer0 for two main reasons - pirates have a long history of maintaining server infrastructure, and joining a smaller instance fights centralization.
I kinda picked lemmy.world at random but I use sh.itjust.works too
