Not complaining by any means–wefwef is becoming my favorite way to access lemmy on my Android phone–just curious if any of the rest of you are seeing this a lot? I’m on lemmy.world, so it’s entirely possible there are load issues, but I was just curious.
A couple of reasons…
Lemmy.world is a large instance and thus has a lot of communities. Your local feed will be very robust as opposed to if you go to a very small instance or a self hosted one.
Picking too small of an instance could mean the admin might decide they get bored with it one day or can’t keep it up for whatever reason. You will lose your account entirely this way.
