Curious about Mastodon. How should I pick a server? (lemmy.one)

Additionally, In order to not overwhelm the largest Lemmy instances, I opted to register with a smaller one. Should I apply the same logic to mastodon.social and the other large instances?

Thanks!

With Mastodon it's less important I think with what local server you choose. You'll still need to go out and find who to follow. With Lemmy, I think critical mass helps show good content quicker. I'm on hachyderm.io. It's a solid Masto server. For Lemmy I'm on lemmy.world just because.
