Hi all,

I'm new to lemmy and this whole setup, so apologies in advance if this is a stupid question, but I'm trying to work out which instance I should base myself in.

Much like Mastodon, lemmy seems to have the 'ALL' view, which as far as I understood it, would pull in all posts from every other lemmy instance. I've looked at this ALL view, however, on startrek.website, beehaw.org and lemmy.one, and the ALL view seems to be different for them all, and all with hugely different numbers of comments (smaller instances seems to have an ALL view with more posts with few comments).

Is my understanding of ALL wrong? Should I be looking for an instance that is popular, in order to get a better experience?

Thanks all!
