There’s only a few things I need to figure out and Lemmy can become a permanent home. Third party apps in development are all showing great potential, so I’m not worried about that. I’m currently using wefwef but have tested mlem and soon memmy and they are all great (or appear to be trending towards great).

  1. I’m on the Lemmy.ml instance. Are there any servers defederated from Lemmy.ml that I’m missing out on?

  2. Each page takes a few seconds to load, but sometimes much longer. Is that because I’m on Lemmy.ml, and if so, how do I find a server that would be quicker? Location based? User-count based?

    Setting it to all shows you posts from all federated instances. As for the communities, I’m guessing as more people sign up and lemmy becomes more popular there’s gonna be some that are going to become the “main” ones. I’ve seen someone on github suggest they should add hashtags and use that to group all communities with the same name from different instances so that might become a thing

      Ah cool that hashtag idea sounds promising—I’d certainly welcome a way to “group” a bunch of similar topic communities under one sort of view.
