Three, first on lemmy.ml, then programming.dev and also lemm.ee.
Lemmy.ml loads very slowly lately, probably due to the recent massive influx of Reddit refugees.
Programming.dev is fine, but from there I mostly see empty pages or less posts when visiting communities hosted on other instances.
Lemm.ee might be a good compromise: loads faster than lemmy.ml and a good generalist instance with a decent amount of users.
Two. Started on sopuli.xyz then made one on lemmy.world.
I'm still not super certain how lemmy works, but there seems to be more activity on lemmy.world. Also, when I tried subscribing to communities on sopuli, most of them said "Pending" and I still wasn't subbed after a couple days. Lemmy.world seems easier.
Two. Got my start on lemmy.ml because it was run by the devs and i thought it would be the most reliable. Boy, was i wrong. Got rather annoyed with the instability and now I'm on sdf.org. Is there a way to sync profiles across instances? Would like to see my post history shared between my profiles.
