Title.

Newbie, recently joined, 7/1/23.

Right now, I'm on three: Lemmy.world (my 'main' or 'home'), kbin, and Blahaj Lemmy. I'm looking at Reddthat and sh.itjust.works as well.

Just curious. I know most of the content will overlap, but there are differences in philosophy/moderator style, etc.

Do you like having ONE instance?

I'm loving Alexandrite as the Dove dark chocolate enrobing my lemmy.world ice cream bar!

Three. I originally signed up on lemmy.world because it was the big one, made an account on lemmynsfw.com for... reasons, then learned that clustering on one instance is a bad idea and made an account, which is now my main, on Midwest.social

I refuse to even try to join midwest.social out of a very petty protest. Fuckers are pretending Missouri ain't the midwest! You're stuck with us, whether you like it or not!

~~get me out~~

The midwest is named after the Midwest Territory. Missouri was never part of the Midwest Territory

Tell that to the census bureau

It's real easy if you just ignore every modern meaning and conception of the Midwest and just use a 150+ year old definition of it. But seriously... the Arch. The Arch! Missouri is definitely the Midwest.

I'll be in the cold, cold ground before I recognize Missourah!

See, I'm actually in Oklahoma, which is even worse, but I'm trying to get the hell out and head for Chicago
