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

There’s a couple of places you can look with info on the instances. I like the admins of my instance but I’ll be moving to their piefed instance instead.

Quick googling: https://join-lemmy.org/instances https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances

Sh.itjust.works is fine if you want to join a mid-sized instance.

I personally find DB0 to be a bit suspect (they tolerate and sometimes enable tankies).

I think you should educate yourself a bit more on the subject

Not the one you're on.

edit I answered based on the title and now I read the description. You might be on the right instance.
