    I’m just sticking to lemmy.world for now. It doesn’t have all the communities I want yet but it seems more open than the others. I don’t like walled gardens or gated communities. If I wanted a platform with power hungry, elitist moderators creating circle jerk in-groups, I would have stayed on Reddit.

      Same. I joined .world randomly because I didn’t understand Lemmy when I joined, but I made the right decision!

        Yeah same. I did shop around a bit on other instances but i decided the general purpose one here was the most sensible for me.

        Same with me and I’m ultimately super happy with my Lemmy experience so far. I’ve been on since the 11th and the experience gets better every day.

      You know you can connect to any community on another server regardless of your instance right?

        Not necessarily. As someone else pointed out in this thread, beehaw is currently set up so that Lemmy.world users can view and comment on posts on beehaw communities, but those comments can only be seen by other lemmy.world users. Individual instances can restrict what users from other instances can do.
