One great thing I just realized, there isn't the need for constant rage bait posting (lemmy.ml)

Every time I look at reddit or twitter they're designed to be filled with the most vile or annoying posts imaginable to keep you scrolling and this place just... doesn't have that. It's relieving to not be inherently angry just scrolling through new posts

Yep, I saw how busy lemmy.ml and the others were getting, and reading the posts I saw how important it is to spread out the users. So I figured I might as well, I run a few other services anyway.

If you like music I'm trying to kick start the server and welcome communities!

I'm still looking around for an instance to join, right now I'm using my existing Mastodon account. I'm leaning towards lemmy.blahaj.zone currently, but I'm also wondering how many new instances will pop up in the next month.

Well you are welcome to join mine! I'm still getting up and running but I'm happy to have people. Just be warned, I started it as a safe haven for Swifties leaving Reddit, so be prepared for that lol :)

Thank you, I'll keep it in mind!

I hope in the future they allow individuals to host distributed infra for existing instances. I'd like to help providing hardware to expand the bandwidth of the system but not really ready for mod duties.

I figure I'll cross that bridge when I get there. I host my own instance for a couple small communities, but we'll see how it grows. If I need help with modding I'd do what Reddit does and ask the community if there are any volunteers
