I don’t understand how Lemmy.world developers managed to surpass both Lemmy.ml and Beehaw.org instances in user activity.

    The name absolutely matters. Federation blah blah doesn’t matter what instance blah blah and all that.

    But regular people will flock to a “normal” or “official” sounding name and url. I won’t be surprised if lemmy.world becomes the defacto instance

      Yeah going forward I’m going to just recommend lemmy.world to people, straight to the point and avoid a lot of the confusion over what instance to pick

        Hopefully, World gets its stability worked out.

        Imagine it requires better hosting, which can be costly.
