Never mind, you got the message across and 13 people agree with you.
FWIW, I would not advertise a single instance though. Maybe more sth like this: https://lemmyverse.net/
I think advertising a single instance makes it less confusing for the Reddit users, if you give them a link to make them choose then they get analysis paralysis
But when you drive everyone to one instance you end up with things like mastodon.social where they're nearly 50% of the whole, which is decidedly not good. I dunno if lemmy/piefed has that problem or not though. As long as everyone isn't suggesting the same instance it should be alright
lemmy.world is the biggest in the Threadiverse by FAR, as long as we aren't suggesting that instance then it's fine
piefed.zip (the one Blaze suggested) is a drop in the bucket of the Threadiverse population, it's relatively small
https://piefed.zip/about has 105 monthly active users
lemmy.world has 14500
I could point 10k new joiners to piefed.zip, it would still be smaller than lemmy.world

analysis paralysis
ooh I like that term, I'ma use it. Funny thing, I'd been on lemmy for over a year when I decied to make a mastodon account to participate in watch parties. I understood the basics of federation. and I KNEW it didn't really matter what instance I made an account on, but it still took me over a month to make an account because of analysis paralysis.

Maybe its just my opinion but I personally wouldn't reccomend piefed until they get a bit more stable, they have a few more pressing issues rn than users

All the new users made Reddit objectively worse. I am not looking forward to when or if Lemmy ever blows up.
