I have seen many comments saying that lemmy.world sucks, and sh.itjust.works is good. I have seen that lemmy.world apparently has a very poor reputation among other instances. Why? After a quick look, sh.itjust.works doesn't look much different to me. Can anyone explain?

Edit: many good replies. the conclusion I'm drawing is that for my purposes it doesn't really matter. I appreciate everyone who responded

Lemmy world has more users and therefore more likely to have more jerks when the jerk to not jerk ratio within an instance is the same.

There are/were a few instances where staying with their registration is worthy of assuming the worst about them.

Stop calling jerks jerks, you're being a jerk! /s

The extra jerks on Lemmy world create more content so the mean jerk time is greater

If they were spread between other instances they would have the same total jerk time.
