Newbie here - just wondering if there are any advantages to signing up to other instances. We can still see/comment on posts from other instances, right? Or do I have that wrong?

Edit: thanks, everyone who responded! Got it.

    I’m signed up on four instances, lemm.ee, lemmy.one, lemmy.dbzer0.com, and lemmyonline.com. Right now I’m mainly using lemm.ee and lemmyonline.com as those perform the best for me. The reason I have four is from looking for the best performance and admin. Performance being in terms of the best ping, least hops, and best server response. Then there’s the instance settings and admin quality.

    Generally it’s good to have two login instances. That way if one goes offline you have an alternate.
