Hi all,

I am pretty new to lemmy and was wondering if it makes a difference where I register my account. On lemmy.ml the name „Green“ (this account) was available and on Lemmy.world „Green“ is not available anymore.

As far I understand Lemmy, it doesn’t matter, but I would be happy if someone could confirm or explain it to me. Kind regards.

    The only exception is if one of the two servers has chosen not to federate with the other. In that case, you would want one on each account. However, that’s pretty rare as of right now.

      The other exception is performance. If you register on a very overloaded server, or one that has insufficient resources, you’re going to have a bad time.
