    People say that picking a server for Mastodon isn’t that important, but really I think it is. Because just a with Lemmy where you can view your Communities, Local and All it’s the same on Mastodon - your server is the Local feed made up of all the people on that server. So you can just read the whole feed of everyone that way, and is it’s a server based around a topic you like then it’s a great place. But if you pick a server based around Crypto or Dance or Sport then you’re going to have a dull time.

    Yes you can find individual people, but it’s a lot more fiddly to find people that aren’t on your server. You kind of have to know who and where they are already.

    That’s why the fediverse works better for Lemmy than Mastodon IMO - because it’s about whole topics than people.

      People told me that I could pick any server and it wouldn’t matter, but I noticed that not all the content in the communities I follow from other servers appear to me. It’s confusing.
