Even the user interface brings back the memory...
It's just lemmy.world, because majority of people jumped on it.

Use different instances to get better experience (you can still subscribe to communities that aren't on your server)

Legit the first thing I noticed. It’s actually not that hard to find the community you’re looking for.
Having a hard time finding an active soccer community. The largest one only has a comment or two per post.
I'm looking forward it growing though. r/soccer 2010-2014 was my favourite internet community ever.
I'm pretty new to this federation idea, but if I'm on a small instance of Lemmy and browsing c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world, would I still see degraded performance?
Are the instances mirroring the content of the communities hosted in another instance?
(Edit: thanks everyone, your responses are really helpful!)
I would just wish there would be a new Reddit view as well. It is just so annoying having to click on the images to zoom in
Showerthoughts
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
