Hi guys! I’ve been here and there in the fediverse since a quite few years…always liked pleroma and mastodon, but always have a very bad luck. Every instance I went , every instance closed… Any good advice to choose an instance? I’m kinda tired of being exporting and exporting ad infinitum
https://fedidb.com/ is good for picking an instance with a substantial user count and shows how long the instance has been running.
instance size is not necessarily a strong signal that the instance is safer.
He didn’t suggest that it was safer. Just large usercount, and long running status.
Safer in the sense of “less likely to go down or disappear”.
