You know people told me to do this with Lemmy and I ended up choosing a lemmy.ml . I found out later I guess that’s the Antichrist and I shouldn’t have done that. What’s the best way to understand what server is kosher?

Mastodon.social, I guess?

(I'm either right or someone will show up to correct me shortly, as per Murphy's law :P)

@happydoors @MousePotatoDoesStuff no, Murphy's law is whatever can go wrong will.

I'm right there with you. To be honest, I'm still figuring out Lemmy myself; like how it's different from Mastodon and why content sometimes crosses over. It seems straightforward to a lot of people, but it's a learning curve for me lol.

Haha, o no. Mmmmh, I would go around server lists (heard good things about https://fedi.garden/ ) and then look at the public timeline of a server and also at the server rules. I did this for finding a new Pixelfed instance a few months ago (didn't find anything I liked) and it was interesting to see if people had just pasted the standard rules (kind of a red flag for me, personally), wrote some bs like "be nice to each other" or had taken care of thinking about this.
