Throughout my time using Lemmy, I have learned about the populations of a bunch of different instances and have made accounts on several different ones based on what I find. However, I’m about to make a Matrix account and this is a whole new ball game. Which server should I choose/avoid making my account on? Does it really matter as much as it does on Lemmy?

    This is the exact problem with the Fediverse. The first thing you need to do is make a decision for which the consequences are unknown. It’s overwhelming and off-putting.

    I set up my own because I don’t want to be dependent on someone else.

    Normally matrix servers don’t block each other they let their users do it instead.

    Just matrix.org, like some kind of pleb.

    I only have an account so I could join in one room, and that’s the server that the room was on, so I decided to keep things simple.
