Because most of the communities are on those 2 instances. In terms of userbase world does have the most users, but they’re the exception as other “big” instances are more evenly split.
So instead of a single instance going down we have 2 main instances that need to go down, and even if they go down we’d have lemmee, shitjustworks, lemmyca and blahaj (and I guess also lemmynsfw) communities feeding the feed.
Purely anecdotal but… the 3 stupidest people I’ve ever met online were all from .world - and there seems to be a propensity for deleting comments that go against their world view. Only knowingly interacted with one .ml poster and they were perfectly decent.
They have “power users” that mod multiples of the largest communities and will delete comments of they disagree with your opinion, citing “civility” or other nonsense, even when you’re repeating back exactly what was said to you. So, yeah, abusive moderation.
Sorry, Lemmy.world and Lemmy.ml were down for maintenance again. You were saying?
Can they do it again please?
And the fact that I had no idea kinda disproves your point. I am browsing Lemmy a lot.
The joke is that most of lemmycels are on lemmy.world and lemmy.ml. Not that these instances literally went down.
Please don’t explain my joke. Just let it woosh over them.

(and db0 for the fun stuff, gosh)
I could absolutely cruise games and memes on shit just works for a day if other instances are down
I agree, having multiple main instance is better than what we had. Also thank you for reminding me lemmynsfw, time for donating.
No idea what a lemmycel is or what that would have to do with bluesky
Slur for lemmy users like redditor for reddit users.
Aren’t we lemmings?
Oh, but ey wanted to be edgy and offensive

Well, this user has posted on feddit.uk with a sh.itjust.works account. I would have been able to see it, but you wouldn’t have.
To be honest, lemmy.world AND lemmy.ml could go offline I would barely notice it.
I have them both blocked, so yeah, they aren’t that important at all.
i can understand blocking .ml, whats wrong with .world though?

I think I would mainly notice because my whole feed would be wholesome, supportive, and funny.
Lemmy.world is fine, as for lemmy.ml…
Fuck you

Shit doesn’t work
Who?
Ah, shit.
