I was going to choose sopuli.xyz but you need to give them a reason to why you want there and I never heard back from them and logging in does nothing, so I assume I was not selected. I say it would be fair if there was some message to go f myself so that I wouldn’t be held in eternal limbo.
So I chose lemmy.world as it’s a general purpose instance and immediate registry.
I’ve been using Lemmy and learning the ropes of the Fediverse and I’m really impressed - especially using wefwef which has replicated my Apollo experience very well....
Sounds like you had issues exclusively with hardware, perhaps you should'ce gone for a different manufacturer. My personal anecdote has never seen anything break (that I didn't cause myself).
Fediverse allows you to filter languages you know and this is the way the filter knows what language the post is. I'm sure you can just not select a language but it runs the risk that some people might not see it.
Rather often, I see a post here with say 5 comments, but I only see one or two under the post. Why is this? Am I perhaps defederated from those posters' instance?
I am on lemmy.world and the post was in this community, so certainly different instance. I can't find the recent observation anymore so can't tell where the poster was from.
On a complete derailment, I just noticed my post go from 50 something points to 553. I clicked upvote myself and it went down to 5. As I wrote this message, it went through random numbers and is now sitting at 765. 😖
What made you pick the Lemmy server you are on?
Does it actually matter?
Do you guys think this is the start of something bigger?

speaking of alternatives, what brand do people hate that actually has a decent alternative?
I know people prefer to complain instead of act, but what is something people don’t like but has an alternative?
Choice of Language (i.imgur.com)
Why is there the choice of language dialogue under every post oder comment? What is it good for? Is it save to neglect?...
Some posts show they have more comments than I can see
