    That’s gonna be hard to overcome. Human nature it going to cause a lot of incoming users to gravitate towards the largest instance instinctively. Hopefully .world is seeing an increase in donations to help with rising costs.

      That’s true, I was guilty of that myself initially. However once you come to understand how Lemmy works you realize that instance performance is more important than population. I think that’s probably okay if users are just finding a place to start, but hopefully they can spread out to other instances once they get going.
