I know this is the hot topic right now but let’s not let Lemmy’s default feed JUST be about the Reddit changes. Seek out your hobbies and comment/vote/post <3

In my opinion that will do more for refugees.

    Not too late at all. To change instances however, ypu need to register on that instance and do a new account. There isn’t a way to switch instances on one account. Many are hoping there will be at one point a functionality to export stuff from one account to another but I have no idea how realistic that is.

      Ah ok cool, i have another question, how many instances are there, too many to count or just a handful? Which instance is best to use ATM to save lemmy.world from being overloaded?

        Closer to “too many to count” than to a handful, but a lot are basically one person running an instance for themselves. Off the top of my head, I’d guess there are at least a dozen that are pretty big and active. Not all of them have “Lemmy” in the name, so you have to find them on one of the instance lists floating around, or just by clicking through to the local instance associated with communities you’re following.
