So, I’ve been on lemmy.world since I joined last year and everyone’s saying it’s too big. Lemmy.ml is the next-largest so I’m conflicted. What do?
Join literally any other server.
That's the point of distributed networks they're supposed to be distributed if 80% of the content is on two servers that's not distributed. People should move off ml and world regardless of their politics simply because it's not a good idea to have everything all in one place.
lemm.ee has been great, very level-headed administration.
Praise the sunaurus!
Lemm.ee is the second by monthly active users

Quite happy on lemm.ee
Best instance
2nd best reporting in.
Join a smaller instance. You can still see posts on lemmy.world, and you might find a niche you're interested in in the process
Smaller instances are also less likely to get defederated by other instances, so unless your admins or mods are quick on the defederation, you get to see everything the fediverse has to offer. Not everyone likes that, of course, but it can be a good perk depending on the user and their admins and mods.
I also really like the idea of interest based instances. I hope we see those grow bigger rather than everything being put on .World and .ml. I need to post and comment on instances like programming.dev or ttrpg.network more.
Join a server that fits your geographic location. That would lead to a better balance than what we have today.
People say lots of stuff, i am happy on world. As long as we don't only take part in local communities i don't think there's much of a problem really.
