Here are the top five most active instances based on active users monthly:
goddammit
i joined dxcomplex because i liked the name; then i joined .world because it was the smallest instance i was confident wouldn’t fold; then it got massive so i joined lemm.ee because it was the smallest instance i was confident wouldn’t fold
i’m starting to wonder if i’m cursed
Wtf go away
but what if going away makes it worse? .world’s downtime has only increased since i made my l.ee acct
Well then, please post where you’re gonna go next so we can avoid your trail.
well actually, i did recently make a backup acct. on lemmy.dbzer0.com…
Lol same, I joined FMHY first because I wanted in on a smaller instance. I now self host. Fool me once.
Now you’ll fold when you’re damn good and ready!
Considering how many startrek memes I see on lemmy, I’m surprised this was the original meme.
I don't care what anyone says I will always read it as start rek
Most of the times that i see this meme is always censured, they usually take out the part where the woman gets gropped. While i understeand why someone wouldnt whant to share something that contains sexuall harasment, i think its a little silly and very courious how its users censored self-censored themselvels with this meme, it its very unussual to find it like this in the wild.
I chose ee over ml after what Mali started doing and that site could drop offline at any time.
The other .ml instances had a .ml free domain. Lemmy.ml paid for the domain so it’s in no danger of losing it.
Getting closer to being ddos’d every six seconds.
Woah, we grew fast!
lemm.ee has been consistently great for me, wonderful admin too.
They should probably add a % measure to that to show active users as a % of total users to give a more balanced look at active instances
Agreed
What is felt by users is the absolute number rather than the proportion.
Who owns lemm.ee and why do people choose it over other instances?
Can’t speak for others, but my decision to stick with lemm.ee stemmed from seeing how active the owner is, the minimal defederation and the bot & moderation policies meaning there are minimal bots, and I’ve yet to currently see much spam issues, which is nice.
Also helps that the owner Sunaurus is an active contributor to the Lemmy project as a whole, so we get patches and fixes relatively quickly.
Because it is more open and lenient in not defedereting and as a user i can choose which subs and instances to block.
Its admin @sunaurus@lemm.ee wrote all about it here: lemm.ee/post/26
Thanks. Looking at the admin’s profile, he seems to be very reasonable. I especially like this comment he made:
“Not sure if I actually have to justify removing soviet and/or nazi symbolism, but I have lived my whole life in a country on the border of Russia. My country been ravaged by both Nazis and Soviets in very recent history. I want to be clear that while I think criticising capitalism is totally normal and necessary, I am also extremely aware of constant Kremlin propaganda. Propaganda which is spread both in their media, but also crucially in online channels. Propaganda which includes things like downplaying horrifying actions of the soviet union, portraying their “enemies” (the west) in the worst possible light, and mixing in soviet symbolism wherever possible. I have no intention of allowing anything which resembles this propaganda to be spread through lemm.ee. If banning offending users does not work, then further steps will definitely be taken.”
It says a significant chunk of their funding comes from users. Where does the other funding come from?
lemm.ee best instance 100%
Isn’t that the one that censors the word “bitch”?
I’m gonna go with no, since I’m reading it perfectly currently.
100%
I think the beauty of Fediverse is that the majority of people can find pretty amazing instances for themselves. I could say the same of mine.
Oh goody. There's a RickRussell_CA@lemm.ee and it's not me. And it's using one of my older profile pictures.
That sucks. Looks like they actually went out of their way to create that account a few days after yours.
That’s why we disabled the buy-sell-trade community on our niche instance. Nobody got scammed during the short time it was open, but if a username can be duplicated it makes scamming that much easier.
Uhhhhh. Yeah this was always something I was worried about with multiple instances. Having multiple usernames run my different people. The @ at the end will be crucial for people keep them separate
The only bad part about the fediverse, imho, it’s hard to be the only one with your username. What makes it bad is a malicious user, that you may have pissed off somehow, start using your username in a smear campaign to hurt your reputation.
The key is to not attempt to foster a reputation in anonymous social media
You are the only user with the username Efwis@lemmy.zip. Nobody else can have that username.
Oh boy, I can’t wait until everyone defederares from us too. /s
Can We Not !
I switched from lemmy.world to the one I’m on right now. Runs smoothly, and there are like a dozen of us, lmao.
So if you’re looking for a small instance that just runs smoothly, come say hi.
It is good for the threadiverse
oh no
I need to switch from lemmy.one. we are still stuck with the context bug of18.3
You might have to, it’s been a while
Damn it, I chose lemm.ee as my backup account (primary is lemmy.world) as it wasn’t the number two…
BeanCounter@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Canadian and running 99% renewed energy was all I needed to know to join sh.itjust.works
JohnDClay@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Also the name is top notch! And it’s been pretty true to it too.
Bebo@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
I like how the name can be read in 2 ways: shit just works and shh it just works!
danwardvs@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
There was a rough week or two there but it’s been good lately. Happy being a part of it though.
BloodSlut@lemmy.world 1 year ago
is there a canada based domain running under lemm.eh? because if not, there should be.
can@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
.eh isn’t an available top level domain

I have never heard a better idea

Tbf, depending on the region, that's just how the electricity is made. The fbxl network runs off of electricity generation made up of 86% hydroelectric and biomass, with the balance made up of wind, solar, and natural gas.
As I have repeatedly repeatedly said, with a geography of canada, the entire country could be 100% renewables in a decade or two if there was a real focus on hydroelectric generation that is presently powering entire regions, and it would make people's lives better in the process with plentiful inexpensive hydroelectric we would make electric heat the most competitive and thus would start offsetting burning fossil fuels for building heat which would have a massive impact on carbon emissions since buildings make up 25% of total emissions and most building heat is done with fossil fuels because electricity is too expensive and the costs are rising so people are migrating to fossil fuels even with the carbon tax...
But I digress...

If it were hosted in Nova Scotia half of it sowowr would come from coal. So I don’t take it For granted
freedomenjoyer@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
I’m confused why it says it is in the Netherlands
can@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
I thought that was the French flag? I figured it got confused by the instance being bilingual.
Navarian@lemm.ee 1 year ago
I do kinda love this name.
spez@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
My people!
thefool@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Also two good reasons for me as well.
It’s strange that it doesn’t report a Canadian flag on the graphic in the post heading though. Looks like Netherlands?
