    Each instance has its own vibe. You joined [Any Lemmy instance, just a fair warning that a few instances and a chunk of Lemmy users have defederated/blocked it, so you may miss out on some content. Otherwise, pretty chill for the most part.

    You can replace .ml with any Lemmy instance. The most Lemmy thing remains all the instance tribalism.

      Yes, but a new user needs to know the instance they join has pros and cons. Like another user stated, they joined .ml after lemm.ee closed and didn’t know why several communities they had subscribed to weren’t showing up.

      Let’s be real for a second, lemmygrad, .ml and. hexbear are well known for blocking and being blocked on Lemmy. Users should know Lemmy isnt like reddit where each user can potentially see 100% of content, it’s dependent on your instance.

        Lemmygrad an Hexbear sure. Nobody will recommend those as servers to start off.

        .ml however is a pretty general server which is federated very broadly. It’s not a bad place to start off.
