I like the fact that mastodon.social is the biggest instance, but I would leave for an instance that is paid only, say $10/month, has a cool domain name, and thus can afford to raise the rate limits.

Mastodon.social feels like early Twitter both culturally (good), and fail-whale-wise (not good).

@jan I love the me.dm domain name, but Medium is a venture-backed company. I don't trust that they'll be around, with the same ideals, for the long run.

@gruber Btw. migrating 28k followers to another instances takes around 3 days cause of the federation :) your target instance should have enough power to handle such a migration. I've supported companies migrating 50k+ followers.
