When I was 12-13, I had a period of time where I absolutely could not cut through a pepperoni. What I did was to move the slices around before baking, however. This is the work of a sick mind.
Think of it like email providers. You can go with Gmail, Outlook, Proton(mail), or even host your own server, but you can email anyone no matter which provider they’re on, because they all follow the same standard.
This is something that lemmy devs need to better address. This is an "Eternal September" kind of situation. People (me included) are not used to the fediverse. They think you can participate only if you're in that instance. And people want content, so they think "why's the instance with most people? Ahh lemmy.ml? Cool, let's join.
yeah. i think the other problem is that people don’t know if the instance would be good performance wise. i.e. i joined lemmy.ml because it was the one i found first.
A good way to handle it would be to have an instance list. with number of users vs maximum users. like joining a server in a video game. if i see its super full, i’ll pick another server. of course, we’d need some large banners to make sure people know they won’t be missing out on other instances.
