Even better, join a smaller one to spread out and make use of the federated nature. Right now imagine
lemmy.mlandlemmy.worldfor whatever reason go down. Basically whole Lemmy is kinda fucked because it's extremely centralized, even though decentralization is one of the points of Lemmy.We need a better way to advertise what servers to direct people to. Would be nice to circle through a big list of instances to evenly direct new users to
Yes, all those webs advertising all the lemmy instances look sketchy to me. >< Something official would be nice.
It’s hard to make anything “official” on the fediverse as things are distributed. Who makes the “official” determination for Lemmy? The biggest instances? The devs? Do we hold a vote across instances?
Yeah, that makes sense. Maybe an official blog of the biggest instances?
