I'm pretty sure you implied that the ranking was based on security and privacy. I don't see the privacy benefits of using iOS over a custom privacy OS.

LW's user base accounts for about 36.4% (as of writing this) of all Lemmy users (spread across approximately 570 instances according to FediDB), which is too large.

You will occassionally see some people from other platforms, like mastodon, commenting or posting here. But Lemmy isn't the most compatible one, so you probably won't see microblogs and such. If you want to see microblogs as well, use mbin (kbin fork). It is a mix of Lemmy and Mastodon. You can micro blog and comment on magazines (communities in the mbin/kbin platform) that way.

I especially am thinking of self hosting mbin because I do want to see some microblogs from some users.

Also I welcome you to Lemmy and the Fediverse. Good thing you didn't choose lemmy.world or lemmy.ml

I believe the official instance already got most of the people who would want to use Bluesky in it.

And even if people did start self hosting their own instances, I am not sure if they could handle the traffic.

I wonder if Bluesky will also be like that someday.

iOS second? What a joke.

Also das werde ich ganz sicher m_f sagen.

It's called "Mastodon".

I am not sure what you mean by a decentralized/federated rendering engine. Do you know what they are?

That's not the point. How can a software like this be in beta for 6 years? The developers clearly don't care about it much.

As always, I recommend Posteo. It's cheap (1€/mo), allows third party apps and at least their website doesn't have any trackers or ads. Probably the best paid one out there.
