It's been a while, which Lemmy instances should I be on? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I haven’t checked Lemmy for a long time but I wanna get off Reddit again, yet I still need to know how many users are on here. Which lemmy instances are suitable to me, the most popular, and which ones to avoid? For context, im queer, anarchist with DemSoc leaning, and environmentalist. Is there a comprehensive list of all the instances and their main functions? Is the instance I’m on still workable? Any feedback would help, thx. <3

More recent versions of piefed should have a much improved compact mode. I basically made the thumbnails for image posts render just like thumbnails for link posts when in compact mode. It was a pet peeve of mine too that compact mode said it was thumbnails, but it still put images on a whole separate line which made them much larger than other thumbnails.

PBZ is on 1.3.0 now, so it should be available if you want to give it another go. Just make sure that your UI option is set to compact mode. This setting is per-device, so you might need to reset it for different browsers/phone/etc.
