I don’t know if this is just a placebo effect, but it feels like there’s a lot more socialization and faster upvotes in the past hour Sync was released.

        Sync defaulted us to it. When trying to add an account, lemmy.world was the easiest one to use.

        For a lot of casual users (myself included) we don’t know any better or why we would do anything else.

          TBH I think Lemmy.world is the best instance to default to. It’s a large, well supported instance. It has open registration (many large instance require your account to be manually approved), and it’s a general instance (not targeting any specific region, hobby/interest, or theme).

          After you’ve been around a while you’ll get a better idea of whether a more niche instance is right for you, and can make a new account at that point.

        I did the Mastodon thing and just created usernames on several servers, one being the most popular. What’s the 411 on lemmy.world being problematic? TIA
