I was browsing the fediverse explorer and did not find lemmy.ml in the instances list.

Explain the difference between the thing I linked, which I think I was told is the be all end all of Lemmy community searching, and this Fediverse Explorer?

They have a different way to present things. I prefer Fediverse Explorer (more information with the table format), but to each their own.

Ah. So it's not one being better than the other. It's more a case of layout taste.

THIS IS WHY I LOVE THIS FEDIVERSE!!!

Other platforms would tell you "this is what this service is, this is how it looks, it's all you're getting, so kneel down, shut the fuck up and take this corporate dick down your throat!"

Meanwhile the fediverse is more like:

"This is the thing you use. It's great!"

And then another guy is like "No, wait, try this instead. It's better."

So now you have to try both, snd make your own conclusion.

Or maybe there's a third thing I don't even know about. Theres no law saying that ONLY two options are available. There's no limit. You could show me 500 different options.

Nobody can tell you what to use, what not to use, whats better.........thats all stuff for the user to decide.
