I just went straight to Feddit.UK after reading that it was best to choose small, but not too small instances. And yeah, it's been great. The only issue I've found is that joining communities from other instances can be slow - I assume that if you're the first subscribers on your instance it has to do some fetching of data. Yesterday it took me 10-15 minutes to join one community.

I found a PSA post from Lemmy devs earlier on that I brought to Tom’s attention, it will hopefully address this issue.
Ah cool. Thanks. Yeah, I saw something about worker threads or something and wondered if that was a cause.
Just created an account here after using lemmy.world for several hours yesterday. Definitely seems a bit quicker using this instance, thanks!
If you're looking for a one-click subscription, hopefully these links will work:
Clicking on these causes Jerboa to crap out for me. But as someone else pointed out if I click on community links via another users profile it takes me to the community where I can subscribe, even if it's in another instance.
Really happy I picked Feddit.uk :)
Joined up and it seems to be working great so far.
Good info, thanks
EDIT: wow, so much quicker to post
I joined a few days ago and can reccomend creating an account there. As Lemmy grows, the need for more instances grows as well.
