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

As are the rules of most instances.

so using the rules as a metric is like the points on who’s line

Let's examine that.

The points on Who's Line don't matter, as a rule - but they do matter because they give the rankings at the end of the show. If the points really didn't matter, we wouldn't know about them. "Points" wouldn't be a subject on the show, and yet they come up at the end of every skit. One person even tallied them up. The points mattered to them, a lot.

Anyway, do you have information or were you just itching to make that quip?
