Following the spirit of spreading across the Fediverse (and because my main instance is down so many times, because diverse reasons) I’m intrigued about the joining instance process, because I honestly don’t know what criteria to have in order to join another one if I ever want to do it.

That made me curious of how you decided to join?

I firstly join to lemmy.fmhy.ml thanks to Spez and a Reddit post from FMHY subreddit, then the tragedy occurred, then I joined to lemmy.world which is/was my main one because I pictured it like a good home, then lemmy.fmhy.net revived and I am with them too, but seems like they are in a bit of trouble with the server, finally now I am in lemm.ee, but only because I just wanted another backup, not because I searched for it especially (also it was mentioned in a comment about smaller instances and one user from here throw a joke to not join here because it sucks so that way the server would be more stable, so yeah, I joined).

To be clear I am not in search for yet another instance (that sounds like a good instance name to be fair), I just want to know how the deciding process is for you, is it just random? Is it because of personal tastes?

I couldn’t care less about NSFW stuff, I don’t search for it specifically, but my day won’t be ruined if I see a tit.

I like gaming, tech, Linux, SBC gaming, emulation, macOS, Android stuff etc (yeah how original) should I look for an instance dedicated to that if I ever want to join yet another one? Because I see topics like this in almost any instance.

I read you lemmings!

EDIT: BTW the migration process has been easier for me thanks to LASIM, so I wouldn’t be scared if I ever want/have to migrate again.

      you told me to look at older comments, and I did? accuses me of cope, sends one of the worst coping comments I have ever seen. A headcanon isnt me spending about 30 seconds looking through your comment history

        Sure bud. Why don’t you comment on the chain you are referencing then? Or source it?

          I can’t link directly to some because you and gaveup got comments removed which breaks the whole shit, but you respond to her comment with this shit:

          https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/1426661 (why tell someone they’re better off at a place that you now supposedly always knew was as bad as lemmygrad is beyond me)

          I think she responded to you with this comment:

          in which case you responded with this:

          she responds with this:

          which is where you respond with this, at which point you still haven’t brought up hexbear’s supposed shittiness

          then, hours later, you respond with this: https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/1431336

          quite easy to see why I think this actually

            This is nothing like what you were crying about lol.

            I did, you posted in their games comm, made that dumbass response in this thread, started getting shit on, then you started shitting on hexbear, pretty clear timeline of events for me

            Not a single thing you sourced is a games com, and yes I did describe hexbear in earlier comments that I told you to check.

            Good job finding the thing I told you to find but shit job finding the thing you claimed existed.

            Cope harder dipshit.

                What are you even on about? You literally are sourcing the referenced comment on my hexbear thoughts, although there were approximately 3 more.

                My first criticism of hexbear was written when only 1 other response was here, and the gaming link you shared has me being upvoted.

                I even defend hexbear by stating similar things as that criticism in one of the first comments in this thread. My views are consistent, there are dipshits in it as well but it’s not a Russian psyop. I even have a hexbear linked account.

                My entire point here is lemmygrad is garbage because it is a state organized psyop, but hexbear isn’t so its valid.

                I directly stated in the 3rd comment in this chain this same shit.

                You’re stupid af and desperate to find something to grasp and cope with.

                  Absolutely insane, please elaborate why you think lemmygrad (which had fucking 300 active users over a period of 6 (six) months before the reddit logo fiasco, and was founded in 2019, 3(three) years before all the propganda wars truly started in earnest) is a psyop and not hexbear which is infinitely more active and posts more about Ukraine and the war than we do (and I want the minimum amount of sourcing like I put into my comment. Like, have you ever looked at their news megathread???

                  Regardless, maybe you don’t understand my claim. I think you developed these opinions of hexbear after they started shitting on you, which my reasoning is that you shit on lemmygrad for something that should be equally if not more applied to hexbear if you did more than 5 minutes of looking around. My point of linking that comment is that you never displayed any disdain for hexbear on a public comment before their users started shitting on you
