I think people naturally tend toward the servers of the people that started the project and also the servers that have the most people on them. As the federated technology continues to smooth out I think more people might be more comfortable spreading out to other servers.

Personally I started out on the Beehaw server but they had some rules I didn't like so then I found another server.

I couldn't deal with the no downvote button in beehaw server. Lemmy.ml seemed to be fit my preference best when I joined at the time. There's also the fact that there's no way to migrate your history right now so I'm staying where I am atm I guess.

I've had a lemmy.ml account for a little bit but I'm trying out a lemmy.world account as I was put off by some of the things I heard about the original server.

I just don't get why every other reasonably big alternative bans lemmygrad.

I tried to start a kbin instance today and I literally ended up corrupting or deleting debian off the VPS.

So look I'm tryin' but uh...give me a little time.

Tell those instances to stop censoring other instances and it'll be ok.

Beehaw.org says

First one I heard about was Lemmy.world, and for a short time I thought others were just "imitation offshoots", taking time to learn the system. There's still not a simple summary to send people, at the very least it can open simply as "Here's some non-Reddit Reddit sites"

How easy is it to migrate yourself from one to another?

Other servers are snappier than lemmy.ml

When looking through the list of other servers, one thing I noticed is that a lot where in languages I don't know.

My work blocks lemmy.ml but not many other instances. Unfortunately all the heaviest memes are on lemmy.ml ! I just want to look at fun memes instead of my lame ass patients what’s wrong with that
