I think when people falk about #7, it needs to be revised to “your choice of instance doesn’t matter when you’re a noob. By the time it does matter, you’ll understand what you want from an instance and can simply make another account”

Agree on all other points though. I hope Lemmy keeps growing and getting more active. A lot of the communities I’ve joined only have a few posts in the past year.

I like Stephen Graham Jones. “The Only Good Indians” had parts that I thought were disturbing.

I know! I hadn’t even thought of that until I saw someone’s was like “mee” and now I need to get another account. It’s like how people get caught off guard when I tell them my 20 year old email is just my name with no numbers or special characters.
