    That just might be where they set up for support questions.

    That would mean that lemmy.ml chose to remove lemmy.world from there, which I would think would upset lemmy.world mods.

      I believe they publicly stated they removed .world from it to prevent centralization because everyone was going to a single instance, thus defeating the fediverse purpose. But this is all from memory.

        The logic it uses is to hide any instances with more than 30% of all active users to prevent centralization, just like you say. There are also some other filters like requiring at least 5 active users.

        Yes, that’s correct. But I’m not aware of lemmy.ml mods running it is all I mean. That it randomises the instances for newbies on first view isn’t great either.
