For any new UK users to Lemmy, consider making an account over at Feddit.uk. It’s an growing instance with a specific community focus on all things UK!
I’m not a admin of that instance, but made my own account after Lemmy.ml became too slow to use and the difference is night and day, at the time of writing.
I just love that almost the entirety of Europe and Canada has decided to create instances called “Feddit”, while the US seems to prefer lemmy.ml, lemmy.world or beehaw.org.
You can see how Lemmy and it’s users are building as we go, it’s really neat to watch it all fall into place naturally
Do wonder whether there will be trademark issues…
Of those I think only beehaw.org is US-based isn’t it? lemmy.ml and lemmy.world are European (I forget where, and I don’t really care so there’s no need to tell me).
