Should we revisit the instance picker to have an easier default choice? (media.piefed.zip)

I like the way Voyager does it: image

DeltaChat also has a very easy onboarding process: you just put your name, and that's it. The app creates the password in the background and allows you to switch servers easily. That really helps with onboarding new joiners.

Piefed.zip could be a nice default choice. If there are others you see, feel free to suggest.

If 10k new Piefed users show up tomorrow if is better to lose them or to have them on two instances that would both have 40% of the userbase?

    It's better to keep them for sure. I'm just saying in a perfect world.

    With the servers and setup we have now it's probably best if they just end up and the most stable wel run instances (as I've been pointing then to)
