Does it even make a difference? Would much appreciate some suggestions.

Just keep in mind you might have to instance hop again if your chosen instance goes down, but that's OK.

Hmm. Do any of the apps allow you to seamlessly manage more than one?

[โ€“] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Most do yes, since that's how Lemmy works in general

I'm new to this but I've found Voyager has served me really well so far. I have two accounts now lemm.ee is going.

The only difference is the administration of the instance (their activeness, beliefs and how they choose to moderate), what instances they federated or defederated with (like hexbear and lemmygrad), and what features they've chosen to implement or not (like downvotes). For casual use, it probably doesn't make a difference.

I'm just now realizing my primary account is here on .ee as well. I have one with lemmy.one and midwest.social but I'll probably make a new one somewhere else like dbzero unless they're still federated with hexbear since .one doesn't use downvotes and I have constant connection issues with midwest.social.

Might i recommend lemmynsfw.com?

[โ€“] HubertManne@piefed.social 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I switched to pie fed mainly because of the options including one to not blur nsfw as a lot of folks bar for nsfw is like way lower than mine.

Can piefed be accessed through voyager? I heard people talking about it as a good way to avoid all the tankies, but I couldnโ€™t find it on the instance search within voyager.

hexbear.net, lemmy.ml, lemmygrad.ml, easily the best instances.

Does it really matter where you go? It's all federated together anyway, that's the whole point, isn't it?
