What made you choose your Fediverse Instance?Why did you choose your Fediverse Instance, does it have a bigger meaning than it was a bigger instance or was it for a certain reason? Did you have to be on your instance you chose?---@asklemmy@lemmy.world @asklemmy@lemmy.ml @asklemmy@sh.itjust.works#AskMastodon #AskFedi #AskFediverse #Fediverse #Instance #Question #FediQuestion

Literally every single instance I've ever joined has either died/shutdown or had weeks/months long outages.

Hate, hate, hate.

Anyway, I almost didn't make it on to lemmy dot zip -- There's a glaring bug and major UI malfunction on the web version of the sign-up form. I tried signing up, got some generic error message "InvalidName", but not indication about what was invalid about it. Tried several variations of the name I wanted, no dice. Tried "InvalidName" itself, didn't work. So I tried "InvalidName2" and that finally worked.

After all that effort to join, figured I'd stay a bit.
