I don’t understand how Lemmy.world developers managed to surpass both Lemmy.ml and Beehaw.org instances in user activity.
minus-squareMyrbolg@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoAs someone signing up for lemmy.world, my reasons were: It sounds official or at least less obscure than “.ml” or “sh.itjust.works” It sounded inclusive (we’re all part of the world, so to speak) It was in the list of default instances of Connect for Lemmy Otherwise, I didn’t give much though to which instance to pick.
minus-squarefeecoomeeq@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-21 year agoSame - sounds better, like .com vs .io and similar.
minus-squareKlear@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoSomeone posted it, maybe in r/piracy, and I signed up. Didn’t give any thought to which instance I was signing up for because I didn’t understand the fediverse well enough yet lol.
