    Yeah. Personally, I also think the join-lemmy.org page should just be a randomised list of instances, not “recommended” and “popular”. It’ll help strengthen the decentralisation and make sure that instances are able to cope with a lot of new users coming to Lemmy easier.

      Not all instances are equivalent, some of them have very different politics and moderation policies.

        Good point. I think something like a short questionnaire asking what the user is interested in and how they align, stuff like that, then showing a randomised list of instances that match that would be a better idea, then.

        Either way, I still think the current way of listing the instances needs to change.
