Good info, I’m also brand new here and looking for an instance in my region. I signed up for beehaw.org, but I’ll just ignore it if they actually give me one. I have a signup in for lemmy.one, they’re okay, yeah? Weird how they both made me fill in some questions and wait for a reply.
I‘ve got one account on lemmy.ml and connect to beehaw through that but one of the first posts I saw there was a discussion on defederating from it cause the mods are tankies. It reminds me of Reddit already haha.
But yeah good advice, seems like choosing main instance is an important part of what experience one has in the fediverse.
Out of the accounts you choose to be your main, don’t use Beehaw.org - they’ve unconnected from the rest of the instances

I think the instance for people being tankies is the lemmygrad one. My instance, sh.itjust.works, has defederated from this as the only one.
