And even knowing that, it's still the one everyone advertises. Drives me insane. Is federation between that and the smaller lemmy instances still janky or something? Because if it's not, there's little to no reason.

I usually recommend it to new joiners so that they don't have to worry about federation right away and can just use the local communities.

After that, I encourage them to move to smaller instances, but I guess they are just comfortable there

If they join to use local, and it works well for them, why would they switch to a smaller instance?

My guess is to distribute users more evenly across instances. Mo' users mo' problems.
