congrats from .ca!
while im here: does anybody actually know why lemmy.world grew the fastest out of all of the instances? its not the "main" instance like .ml, not a safe space like beehaw, and a normal general instance like itjust.works. im curious why out of all places, .world got the main influx
For what it's worth what sold me on .world is the slogan, front-page of the internet. It may or may not be misleading but I'm after a Reddit replacement with a mix of all communities.
As I explore more I may go elsewhere but so far it has the Reddit feel.
isnt that reddits slogan? no kidding, buddy. no kidding. (i mean this in a positive way)
