    Why are people joining .world to begin with?

    Because how it works when you first join is very confusing, and why you would choose any particular server is not clear at all.

    Also, people want to join something that is bigger and more active because it feels like it would be better (more stable, more content, etc.)

      In all fairness I applied to 5 Lemmy instances when the Reddit downfall started, including .ca and .world. .ml to date is still the only one to have processed my application. It may have been due to lots of applications at the time but the sheer fact my application is still pending on the other 4 instances leads me to use the one that actually works as opposed to the first one I chose.
