      Can’t speak for others, but my decision to stick with lemm.ee stemmed from seeing how active the owner is, the minimal defederation and the bot & moderation policies meaning there are minimal bots, and I’ve yet to currently see much spam issues, which is nice.

      Also helps that the owner Sunaurus is an active contributor to the Lemmy project as a whole, so we get patches and fixes relatively quickly.

      why do people choose it over other instances?

      Non-techy people want a big instance, but .world goes offline too often and .ml doesn’t allow new sign ups.

        .ml doesn’t allow new sign ups.

        It does, however one must know what is six minus two to get the approval.

            They got aome of the most traffic during the migration, so it pulled itself off the instance list page i think for regiatration so that people would join other instances leveling the load
