Its a feature not a bug :)

My issue is lemmy.world (and other bigger instances) is so big that it was just slamming my tiny personal lemmy then later piefed server, so I had to give up. There was a HUGE queue of changes for my little instance of one user.

the problem with small instances is they die more frequently. sometimes without prior notice. i lost a few accounts that way. that lemmy server list said it wouldn’t matter what instance i chose, but it really did. with this account, it’s the longest time i had one.

however, all big instances started small. so we also need ppl to grow small ones. it’s not an easy choice.

What? Is getting noticed bad?
