I don’t understand how Lemmy.world developers managed to surpass both Lemmy.ml and Beehaw.org instances in user activity.

    As someone signing up for lemmy.world, my reasons were:

    • It sounds official or at least less obscure than “.ml” or “sh.itjust.works”
    • It sounded inclusive (we’re all part of the world, so to speak)
    • It was in the list of default instances of Connect for Lemmy

    Otherwise, I didn’t give much though to which instance to pick.

      Someone posted it, maybe in r/piracy, and I signed up. Didn’t give any thought to which instance I was signing up for because I didn’t understand the fediverse well enough yet lol.
