I want to create a Pixelfed account but I’m not sure which instance to choose. I’m in the US, so I was just going to pick the default and largest option, but I know spreading out the instances is one advantage to the federated network, so it then makes sense to choose a smaller one....
The fanbase is still large, but the Lemmy community hasn’t quite caught up yet, and now there is a transitional period where the audience is smaller.

My instance has (already) decided to not block a particular instance, which in the majority I find to be divisive, at best. I keep missing the instance source in the user names, and it’s the single biggest source of bad lemmy experience....
Is there any keyboard which lets you configure the service used for voice input?...

Hello. I’ve been a window user from win95. I’d like to learn more about Linux but don’t know where to start. I had a brief intro when I was in highschool and recently I’ve been seeing more and more talk here on Lemmy. Mostly memes....
