    So are there any real downsides to having an account on this instance? I chose it randomly when I signed up and don’t know enough about the situation.

    Should I be concerned enough to go make another account or is it essentially meaningless at the end of the day?

      You may lose out on some content as instances have defederated from it. Although most of the hardcore tankies moved to lemmygrad.ml, leaving lemmy.ml as the clean PRC PR face so it’ll probably not see as much defederation.

      I guess follow your beliefs on this one. Also, it’s possible that by you being there, you add to the number of active users on that instance, therefore increasing the appeal for newer users to join in and possibly donate to the founders. (which are tankies)
