What do you want them to do? Select an instance at random, to spread them out?
Yeah, this is just stupid. I wish a significant amount of redditors would go to lemmy.world
I mean, what do you want to tell them to join? Something called "mander.xyz"? "sopuli.xyz"? Maybe something like sh.itjust.works, jlai.lu or yall.theatl.social? I'd feel awkward enough telling them to join "Lemmy" then linking to lemm.ee. Sending them to lemmy.ml would just be cruel.
I picked lemmy.world because it sounded the least sus
As many others did, and many others will in the future.
Referring new users to a poorly named instance is a generally bad idea.
It is the most popular and easy to understand, I've never been harassed by the instance admins or mods like in other communities. (.ml .blahaj .ee)
.world is the defalt instance and I can't find a better one to take its place
lemm.ee wasnt off to me but yeah lemmyworld seemed like the better just because it had lemmy in the name lmao, lemmy.ca maybe
