We did it!

Wait that wasn’t the point.

People seem to only want their accounts on “general use” instances that are already pretty popular.

Which is… bizarre. There is no downside to having your account on a more niche instance (as long as it isn’t so niche that it gets turned off), and there are arguably disadvantages to having your account on a more popular instance.

A slight advantage to big servers is the increase in anonymity on the backend. Given the server admins can do what ever that want. An admin on small server would no doubt be looking into who and where their individual users are. Big severs are more likely to become more population based. Doesn’t really matter though I suppose.

I wouldn’t say no doubt. Some certainly would do that, others could have more integrity.
