Throughout my time using Lemmy, I have learned about the populations of a bunch of different instances and have made accounts on several different ones based on what I find. However, I’m about to make a Matrix account and this is a whole new ball game. Which server should I choose/avoid making my account on? Does it really matter as much as it does on Lemmy?
This is the exact problem with the Fediverse. The first thing you need to do is make a decision for which the consequences are unknown. It’s overwhelming and off-putting.
