Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

I don’t want to seem like I’m spamming or just commenting for self advertisement, but I have space to grow here if anyone wants to join. I have registrations open for the week since things are tumultuous. https://links.dartboard.social
Same here - https://lemmy.rogers-net.com
Looking to keep mine small like 100 users (I'll see how much resources that takes, then decide if I want more) so I don't incur large bills but want to do my part. Not really anticipating any real "local" community but since everything is federated, you can always subscribe to any communities on any other instances and just live in your "Subscribed" tab, fully enjoying the Lemmy experience like any big instance. And of course users on other instances can use a community you set up here.
Federates with NSFW servers (that don't have abhorrent content, I defederated/blocked burggit), if that's something you're looking for.
I saw someone suggesting "user only instances", instances where you can't post content but can make an account and browse the fediverse.
It might help with the overcrowding.
That could be a good idea for onboarding if it's possible. You can just start browsing right away and then pick your home instance later
