And yet I’m the one on lemmy.ml and you’re the one on lemmy.world 🤔

no, I migrated away from LW a few months ago. I am currently on discuss.tchncs.de

I think you confused my current account with the inactive one on LW that I only use for moderating in asklemmy sometimes.

Oops, embarrassing. 😅

I have not been convinced lemmy.world being the largest instance is actually a bad thing. It’s bad for federation, I suppose, but they’re all Redditeurs and I appreciate having a containment zone for them.

Most people here are from reddit or other centralized and enshittified platforms such as Twitter.

LW got recommended often and it created a snowballing effect, which is why it became the biggest lemmy instance. Unfortunately people keep doing it and LW admins refuse to close down their registrations temporarily to allow other instances to get some traffic as well. That’s why some people (like me) advise people (like you) to stop recommending LW over other instances.

And LW is not a “containment” zone for former redditors.
