I picked this instance because the name wasn't too serious and at the time, it was similarly popular as .world.
I'm really happy I chose shit because world became too popular in my opinion, and the admin here is pretty cool
I wanted an alt on iusearchlinux.fyi but the admin didn't approve my application :(
That's so arch linux user of them lmao
This made me laugh out loud
Same. I think it was the third or fourth most popular at the time, so I figured it had a good chance of not getting overwhelmed or falling into obscurity. I switched after the Reddit API announcement, but before the change went into effect, and I'm guessing a lot of others did too.
It still works well, so I stay. I'll probably move to a smaller instance eventually to help spread the load, but for now, sh.itjust.works.
