    Beehaw is a quieter experience than most because it has narrower federation, but you do tend to get a better signal to noise ratio since you miss the spammier instances - I like it.

    Beehaw also doesn’t federate downvotes which I think is an improvement.

        Posting from a Beehaw account I think does have a psychological effect on me that causes me to naturally tone things down a bit. I think it’s been good for me.

    • Yeah and in addition to that the overall “be(e) nice” rule means that people are generally just a lot more pleasant to be around and less abrasive than what I see in some of the other larger instances.

      Only issue is I recently opened another account because theyre leaving lemmy eventually and currently my posts dont federate and all my subscriptions are pending.

        Nothing’s concrete yet. I have accounts on several instances for their various advantages, but Beehaw is what I’ve settled on as my main “default” for now. The Subscribe Pending is a bug, I don’t think it affects your posts federating so they’re separate issues if that’s the case.

    I’m enjoying Beehaw. I really haven’t looked around at other instances that much, but it’s pretty chill here.

    lemmy.sdf.org when it works; federation there is kinda fucked right now, so I’m on lemmy.today for now. I accidentally posted it from SDF. Comment if you can see this.

    SDF has an extensive track record (* much longer than I have been alive*) of providing systems for the public good. If federation gets fixed (and it probably will eventually), I’ll be back on SDF.

    Additionally, I generally don’t want the set of people I can connect with to be technically limited, like at all. Yes that includes “all the bad people” according to your (and my) individual worldview. If they’re going to exist, I would prefer to have advanced notice of the danger they pose. If you suck, I will block you.

    I’m not against moderated or curated instances, and for most people that is probably the way to go, but it’s not what I personally need. Yes, this means that I occasionally get wild shit when I choose to scroll through All. Yes, that means I get various shades of genocide apologists and weird bigots, again when I choose not to browse by Local or Subscribed. That’s why I’m subscribed to a bunch of cool, moderated communities. I choose the content I see.

    That is the approach I prefer for myself. Again, I understand that it’s not for everyone.

    As far as instances where I’m not (yet) a member, lemmy.dbzer0.com is my favorite by far. Also while I don’t have any communities on their instance, the startrek.website people seem to always have something interesting to say.

    Lemmy.world for me.

    It’s generic, has a good list of communities, and the mods are legends with updates and transparency.

      I personally prefer using Lemm.ee, mostly because it’s the instance I started off with, but the problem with that instance is that it’s dry lol

    Lemm.ee seems pretty okay.

    I don’t care much about instances though, I just use Lemmy like it’s Reddit and scroll through the home page and my subscriptions
