So apologies if this is a stupid question as I’m new to Lemmy. Came from Reddit. I moved to lemmy.world and have noticed that lemmy.ml has been popping up as another featured instance. What differs from lemmy.world vs lemmy.ml? Is .ml more active?
Part of why I ask this is because I downloaded the lemmur client on my phone and it defaults to lemmy.ml. (Yes I’m aware that app is no longer being maintained)
Again apologies for the stupid question.
To my knowledge, the dev actively does not want .ml to be the main instance, and because of that a lot of people ended up (and still are) joining .world or beehaw. I fully expect .world to become the default at some point, it statistically has more active users and is outgrowing .ml at a rapid pace.
lemmy.world seemed to be the obvious starting point to me when I was first looking at it a few days ago.
Definitely not all in my experience.
For me it was the only one that actually let me sign up. The others just spun forever and ever after submitting.
