All valid concerns.
To me the first one is an instance problem (ml, hexbear?), and not a lemmy problem. It has looked like they've been trying to separate the two as much as possible.
Unfortunately, .ml is a default instance and the main devs instance, what happens there reflects on all of us
Default where?
https://join-lemmy.org/
I don't see it on that page. Going to "See all servers" lists "lemmy.ml" at a random position in the list. Looking at "Join a server" and using "Generic" or "All topics" also lists it in a random position. Am I missing something?
If you use "Most active", it will shows up after lemm.ee and the other big instances. So not default, but would still be recommended to new joiners
Well to me that doesn't fit the "it's default" description.
While looking at that, I couldn't see lemmy.world on that page. I found that join-lemmy.org now excludes instances with >30% user share in order to dampen centralisation. Which makes sense I guess.
