Matrix suffers extremely of this issue. It feels like 95% or more are on matrix.org instance. And all major chat rooms are hosted there too.
I think something like a weekly cap for new registrations as an option would be good. With a hint to other instances.
It’s kinda the same issue that some games have, like MMOs. People tend to make new accounts on the biggest and overloaded servers because there is the most activity even though stability could be an issue, or login queues.
But that doesn’t make sense on matrix or Lemmy. Because you can still access all content no matter where you are.
