As long as it isn’t actual credentials from reputable sites, it’s almost definitely a scam lol

That’s not how federation works. You can still interact with lemmy.world and its users from another instance, but spreading out not only helps with lemmy.world’s load, but also the fediverse.

too late, going to register on lemm.ee now!

At present, I don’t think it does, which is a shame.

No, again, my suggestion is not to centralise anything.

If anything, I would have preferred if ps5!ps5@lemmy.world had moved to lemm.ee instead of lemmy.world. As it stands, lemmy.world is getting too big for a “federated” Lemmyverse, why should we continue to support federation on Lemmy, if lemmy.world becomes the new Reddit?

Perhaps you should have taken the time to consider better alternatives before jumping. This looks like a hasty thought, jumping from the #2 to #1 Lemmy server, and it’s actions like these that definitely harm the Fediverse. Now the lemmy.world instance has to shoulder on even more burden. Thanks.

No, as opposed to moving a specialised instance, like how Android moves to lemdro.id. All of the centralisation lemmy.world and lemmy.ml is beginning to have an effect, and you guys are just at the starting line of finding out.

Decentralisation has nothing to do with blockchains. Hell, even BitTorrent was decentralised before the term blockchain even came to be.

the instance I’m on seems to be performant enough :)

truly tragic, communities should have never centralised on the top instances.

One good way would be HTTP response times from the API, since that is not something that would be cached by Cloudflare at the edge.

That’s a terrible justification. lemmy.world is using Hetzner, and not a CDN whereas lemmy.ca is using Cloudflare, which is a CDN. Pinging is a terrible benchmark for comparing server performance.

That is still the 7th largest instance. I’m glad it still works out for you, but I’m still not a fan of how the entire fediverse can be summarised in the top few instances.

How about no? No instance in the fediverse should grow as unsustainably as lemmy.world or lemmy.ml. People should naturally diversify into the smaller instances because that is what a federated Lemmyverse is supposed to be about.

None. Lmao. This is by design.
