I actually really enjoy this, it’s really cool to login each day and only see UK specific content in a similar style of the subreddits of old, and with most of the features of Reddit. Previously I had to have them with a multi reddit, but my home page was full of world wide content.
I like that due to federation I can still look at content from around the world but it’s not my default experience. Feels more personalised.
You're viewing a single thread.
I like this too. Having spent a bit of time flitting around the fediverse, I believe that we're going to see local instances with local content, and the larger places with more global.
And honestly? I think it's quite a healthy way to do things.
If you live in a country of 5 million people, instead of being fractured across 5 big instances, someone can put all the local stuff in a local lemmy for local people (we'll have no trouble here). If the site admin has to pack it in one day, it's a far less daunting task to transplant, than a megasite deciding to suddenly go public.Then when you want to do more global things, you go to a global/US instance.

For local people, hopefully.
People who don't try to steal the Nice Things of the shop, Edward.
We don’t bother the outside world, we don’t want it bothering us.
This is where you get the special stuff.
