I’m a bit confused at the explosive growth of Lemmy and the slower growth of Kbin. Do the stats reflect the reality or is there a problem with the data being fed back to the various stat hubs?
I know the difference is partly because Lemmy was a larger platform, and is better known but the growth of Kbin seems suprisingly flat while the community seems to be getting more and more active?
Fediverse is fediverse
That seems like the bottom line. I suppose a case could be made for concern that the instance you choose is going to remain for the long term. And that it’s not run by people with beliefs egregiously different than yours. Other than that, being on a main instance or not shouldn’t matter too much.
What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
