I made an account on lemm.ee, but it seems that no one uses it, even though it’s recommended by join-lemmy.org .

    No one uses it? It’s a pretty popular instance. Just because it doesn’t have many popular communities doesn’t mean people aren’t using it, we just spend our time on communities on other instances.

    It does not matter how many people are on your instance. The only things that matter are that your instance hasn’t been defederated from other instances with communities you’d want to participate in, that it is kept up to date and online, and that your instance owner/operators stay on top of moderation. I’ve not heard of any problems along these lines with lemm.ee

      Well, user base could have impact chances that instance will be supported for a long time in a good way.

      On top of that, in your “all” feed you only see communities which users from your instance subscribe. Smaller instance - emptier this list. This is a discoverability.

      I’m not sure I entirely agree. The more popular your instance is, the more content you’re likely to get on /all

      Is the server going down a normal occurrence? Good to know I picked a more stable instance.

        World had quite a few issues. I think they’ve resolved it though.

        And even .ml had some security issues. But the lemm.ee dude had already patched the security hole with a custom build and was helping all the other admins.

        I quite like the instance owner’s work and transparency.

    It’s great for me. I started there and it’s still good. The admin seems cool too, staying on top of updates and addressing issues that pop up.

      Yep and the admin has actually assisted Lemmy.world’s admin to solve their issues before. That fact alone made me settle on lemm.ee - like you’re making a good decision going with this one.

    It’s great. I get all of the access to the Fediverse without really any of the connectivity issues I experienced on my lemmy.world account

    I think join-lemmy.org recommends at random so it doesn’t particularly mean anything. No reason not to use it though as you can view the the lemmyverse from any of them.

    Lemm.ee best instance, lemmy.world worst instance.

    It doesn’t matter how many communities an instance hosts since you can interact with any community on any instance (barring any defederation). Lemm.ee’s strength is in being a fast, reliable instance with the best admin.
