Why are you selecting for long names? 😅
In terms of an optimal load spread, it’s best if the lemmiverse is split into multiple equally sized instances. If you use an instance just for yourself, it doesn’t actually decrease the load on the main servers in any way. The only thing you get is a guarantee that your instance won’t suddenly go down.
As more and more people get direct fibre optic connections, this advantage will get smaller and smaller…
