How do you choose an instance and does that have a significant effect on your Lemmy experience?
I originally chose to make my account on lemmy.world since all the content seemed to come from there. But I've since learned that I can fill my feed with stuff from any instance so it feels like it doesn't actually matter if I'm on lemmy.world or not. At the same time, Lemmy.world seems to be frequently under attack so I'm wondering if I should change instance but have no idea what I should even be looking for when choosing.

I go to the ones that everyone else defederates. Means they have something important to say. I'm against all censorship.
Why is this garbage comment at the top, can I change my default comment sorting?
It depends on who is defederating from you. Extremists? You're probably doing something right. Normal people? Maybe not so much.
Depends on your definition of "extremists" and "normal people"
