I’ve seen a few mentions of people feeling like they’re constantly seeing the same content when sorting by active, I’ve since moved to hot, and I’m having a much better time.

    So you can already kinda see how the different instances differ.

    They all for the most part run the same server which means they will all look the same. The difference then comes down to how they will manage the server and moderate the users.

    I can’t give specifics between lemm.ee and lemmy.world because I haven’t really seen much from the admins. I know Ruud, the admin of lemmy.world, also hosts large instances of other federated platforms like Mastodon, so it can be assumed they are experienced with hosting and there will likely be limited service interruptions that other instances may face.

    One instance may be more relaxed with controversial topics and not block them from happening, one may want to defedare with certain instances because they simply don’t agree with their viewpoint even if others may be interested in hear from other viewpoints, one instance may not want to update to the latest Lemmy version right away which means things might be slow or not work as well until they do update.

    I’m sorry if you are looking for the actual specific difference between lemmy.world and lemm.ee, but ideally the administration of an instance should be transparent to you.

      Don’t be sorry, your replies were helpful and informative. I didn’t even consider server performance.

        Server performance is a big one, lemmy.world was really slow for a while because it was the biggest one
