I realize. I just wanted to make a new account with the lowest ping instance while the server is upgraded at lemmy.world

Yea ended up choosing a pretty popular one near me, hopefully they don’t shut down or something though. Thanks!
They are on the same “network”, but that only means they use the same format to exchange messages. It does not mean that they work well together. The Lemmy UI is much better suited for posts with large discussion threads.
Basically you can treat them as separate for all intents and purposes.
Yeah exactly — Reddit hasn’t been profitable ever. Probably explains why they fired the person who actually was hired to do celebrity AMAs and leaving it to volunteers. Celebrity AMAs are probably one of the better ways to attract attention, but of course are pretty expensive.
Yea it really wouldn’t matter other than having religious dogma change or about what happens after death.
It’s more of an interesting thought experiment about the seemingly minuscule chances of life forming and us being/experiencing life.
Not sure why people care so much, they are only hurting themselves and the communities hosted on their insurance — way more than the damage to .ml or .world
Yea the internet definitely has taken that trend to the extreme in recent years, especially with businesses which don’t make their own websites anymore and host their social media on platforms like Facebook; of course along with individual communities slowly being herded into the corporate mega forum that is Reddit. Definitely not healthy to have all our human interaction/information controlled by these entities especially as we move into the age of artificial intelligence.
Yea there were already earlier reports of this so no surprise here. Imagine not only dying for a useless war, but your government covers up your death and countless others to avoid paying your family some scraps of useless rubles.
Especially considering another instance will just make a new one in order to popularize it instead, even if it’s not .world which is shaping up to be the “main” instance
Hate to break it to ya but that’s just your UI from whatever app you’re using; you definitely have a “karma” score / upvote score, currently at 47 comment upvotes total.
As long as your instance is federated with other instances you should be able to upvote/downvote/interact with any other instance’s comments, posts, etc.
You probably were trying to do so with a beehaw.org instance which was recently defederated from most other Lemmy instances
It doesn’t? Something with 1000ms is going to be less responsive than 100ms geographically closer, though I don’t know how much it varies.
I assume that me, being the the US, will have a significant enough high ping by being on an instance that’s hosting in Finland. I never used the wrong terminology, just was asking about how to find the lowest ping — I only said I was trying to find the lowest ping because lemmy.world’s servers are shutting the bed. I can see where the extrapolation comes from though, didn’t make it clear enough.
