I have seen many comments saying that lemmy.world sucks, and sh.itjust.works is good. I have seen that lemmy.world apparently has a very poor reputation among other instances. Why? After a quick look, sh.itjust.works doesn’t look much different to me. Can anyone explain?

Edit: many good replies. the conclusion I’m drawing is that for my purposes it doesn’t really matter. I appreciate everyone who responded

    Users get attacked for the instances they registered to, even if they were unaware of instance politics when they actually registered. That sucks!

    This. I created my account in 2020 waaaay before the reddit API thing. If I remember correctly, there were just three instances available. Yet a majority of instances block .ml because of tankies and the admins and stuff. I just wanna browse memes, fuck me right? (Insert meme)
