Looking between three Canadian instances with around 180 users each and thinking, I don't wanna be the loudest guy in those particular rooms.
Don't want to be beholden to the whims of unapologetic AI boosters or have my presence read as supporting whatever jerkass behaviour surfaces from individuals running their servers.
I want stable, well funded, responsibly moderated. Canadian is nice but non-US really is the big thing.
Cripes, I might end up on @Vivaldi 's

@action_jay I started on mastodon.social years ago, forgot about it, came back during one of the Twitter death throes, and started a newer account on mastodon.online without thinking about it, and haven’t really felt the need to move anywhere else. I do send an annual stipend to the instance maintainer via Patreon and basically don’t otherwise think about it. While I appreciate the presence of the Canadian instances, I’ve never felt a compelling need to move to one of them.
