I don’t understand how Lemmy.world developers managed to surpass both Lemmy.ml and Beehaw.org instances in user activity.
minus-squareSMT42@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up34·edit-21 year agoFor me honestly mostly the name. World. Seems like a default instance to me. What does ml even mean?
minus-squareCrimsonFlash@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up16·1 year agoThe name absolutely matters. Federation blah blah doesn’t matter what instance blah blah and all that. But regular people will flock to a “normal” or “official” sounding name and url. I won’t be surprised if lemmy.world becomes the defacto instance
minus-squareSMT42@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoYeah going forward I’m going to just recommend lemmy.world to people, straight to the point and avoid a lot of the confusion over what instance to pick
minus-squareDr. Santa@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoHopefully, World gets its stability worked out. Imagine it requires better hosting, which can be costly.
minus-squareGiddyGap@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up9·1 year agoThat’s why I went there as well. Seemed like the default.
