What are some smaller Lemmy / Kbin instances that are just as good as lemmy.world (lemmy.world)

I'm just asking for recommendations in case, I feel like migrating to a smaller instance or maybe try kbin for a change (but I'll miss the voyager web app)

How are you defining "good" here? Off the top of my head I would say

lemm.ee
lemmy.sdf.org
lemmy.one
sh.itjust.works

This is a great list of general-purpose sort of "next step down in size from lemmy.world"-instances.

Well, by "good" I meant general purpose, no NSFW, federates with bigger instances, consitent uptime .. etc.

My instance (https://lemmings.world) fits most of that!

general purpose
federates with bigger instances (I even have a bot running that's subscribing to popular communities across Lemmy instances so the All feed is full of content and really comparable to the biggest instances)
consistent uptime (I have 100% according to lemmyverse.net and 98.93% according to fediverse observer)
the only criteria that doesn't fit is that I allow NSFW, but it has to be clearly tagged as NSFW, meaning you can simply disable NSFW on your profile

Hey, OP here. Just joined your instance.

Quick question... What do people usually do when they have accounts in multiple instances ?

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 2 points 1 year ago

Glad to see you here!

Well, depends on if you want to use the other account or not. I had an account on lemmy.world very briefly and I simply don't use it anymore. I didn't delete it in case I need it for some testing, but I don't use it.

Generally I'd say people use their app to login to multiple accounts? I know Liftoff (which I use) can do it, though I don't use the feature very much. I think I've read some apps can merge the feeds from all your accounts into one, though I don't know which (maybe even Liftoff can do it, I really don't know).
