Honestly I joined lemmy.ml because it had the description that most closely matched my interests without feeling like I’m joining one single person’s home lab experiment. I think we would need a few more large general purpose (vanilla) instances.
On the other hand I wonder if it doesn’t make more sense to condense communities/topics into single, topic-specialized servers. I can’t imagine, from a UI perspective subscribing to 100 different news communities and another 100 gaming communities and… I feel like the current UI just isn’t designed with this in mind.
