What instance of Lemmy would you recommend to use, lemmy world or something else? (lemmy.world)

I'm still trying to get used to Lemmy; the main thing confusing me is the federated bit.

I just want to access Lemmy and its content; how do I do that? Currently I'm just going to old.lemmy.world and using that as a starting point.

Is there another instance you would recommend as the default one?

The two main reasons I ask are:

  1. I want to know if there are things I am simply missing out on and there's a better way to browse Lemmy.

  2. I really don't like cloudflare and have it disabled in Javascript. I don't want to leave it enabled for lemmy.world.

Two things, you were right; my misunderstanding was due to my failure to have an intuitive understanding of defederation.

What happened was that I signed on in lemmy.world to make a post on lemmy.cafe (through lemmy.world).

My second question: I tried all weekend to access old.slrpnk.net

But the site was either really really slow (like a page would pop up after a minute or two) or would just result in an error.

Is this a problem on my end? Or is something going on that should be sorted out soonish?

Thanks again and keep up the good work.
