I'm definitely seeing the benefits of belonging to a smaller Lemmy instance today. (self.meta)

I've gone and made accounts of a handful of Lemmy instances, all of them larger, more popular ones.

... and I can't access any of them directly today, likely due to the influx of users from Reddit.

Programming.dev is alive and well though.

I am noticing a lot of comments from lemmy.world communities can't be seen from my other accounts like lemmy.ca or programming.dev.

Aside from that, I think it's nice to be on a smaller instance.

I read earlier that users and posts from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works are not being properly loaded and displayed due to the user’s client instance de-federating from instances with problematic users.

In other words, the behaviour of users in some instances has an effect on their reputation.

EDIT: (Maybe not. Not trying to kindle the fire of rivalry between Lemmy instances in here. Yet. * vsauce.wav here *)

Only Beehaw defederated. The problem today is that lemmy.world is upgrading to 18.1 and it hasn't been going to smoothly. The server has been restarted a ton lately.

I thought that was just beehaw that defederated from a bunch of places?
