Wanted to be on a reasonably big instance, since I figure they’re more likely to stick around in the long run. Lemmy.ml was closed for registration at the time (might still be, idk), and plus I have some disagreements with the admins, so I chose lemmy.world. I’m pretty happy here and don’t see a reason to change personally, although the server’s getting pretty overloaded recently so we’ll see.
Bonus points if they’re Nintendo games!
I’ve been using this userscript to redirect all links to my instance. If you’ve never installed a userscript, it’s pretty easy, you just need to install the Tampermonkey browser extension (there are others but it’s the one I use), then click the greasyfork link in the post I linked, and click install.
