I didn’t know there was an entrance quiz on the others!

I kinda dig this new (compared to Reddit) "friendly competition" dynamic between servers.

I wrote a essay with a million grammatical errors, then decided I'd prefer to have my account on a instance that is smaller and in the EU as I have that option :)

Also part of it was anxiety of who saw and approved πŸ‘

I'm on two, this and sopuli.xyz - which I joined on a whim before even knowing what lemmy was. I'm pretty sure my personal statement was merely "I miss usenet". And, it's weird, but the community search function is...inconsistent at best. I've tried searches on three different instances for a common term and come up with nothing (sopuli), 4 communities (.world), and 6 communities (.ml). .world seems like a more generic fit and, um, yeah - no personal statement.

Exactly why I choosed lemmy.world. I looked for something less busy, but justification for account? C'mon...

[–] Grassgrowz@beehaw.org 10 points 1 year ago

i wrote about two or three sentences for every question, neatly formatted into three tiny paragraphs, got accepted within 5 minutes!

I've been having a good time on vlemmy.net. It's small, has a fairly active admin, and seems to be fostering a healthy community with a reasonable number of restrictions.

You haven't seen the lemmygrad join requirements.

[–] MrPinder@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

I tried signing up here twice and wrote an essay both times and didn’t get accepted before I found lemmy.world. That’s alright I love it here anyway

[–] GamerBoy705@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

I signed up for both lemmy.ml and lemmy.world instances. I actually got accepted in like 12 hours on lemmy.ml which is pretty good despite the small team and the flood of new users.

Before I got in here, I tried to get into there. Glad they didn't let me in!
