* Is it Important, which Instance you are in ? *
Once again I had an enjoyable conversation, earlier today. Achso was there, and we continued a conversation from a day before. We discussed different things, and specially how choosing an instance to fit your needs and preferences is important.
My thoughts on the matter, and a detailed list of some instances I frequent.

[ a repost of my original Jan 4, 2020 Blog post announcement -- relevant on this day where I am mentioning other instances worth of consideration and instance listing sites.
More is better. Less is Twitter, FB. Don't need or want that
And Here is another Proof that Instances DO Matter.
Same post as above, lightly touched with #MarkDown goodness. At a GlitchSocial instance, not a mastodon one which is still stuck in 500 character toot limit and other quirks of the project leaders preference.
Screenshot, judge for yourself. Does it matter? does it look better, worse?

It is an Option, and currently only people in leading edge Fedi can see this natively. A major flag and issue for me, as you might notice? #writers love #clarity and this helps. #focus , #design, better #UI and #UX is on these other projects -- GS and Pleroma at the moment, that I know off.
There might be others; Friendica is intriguingly RICH in features, text formatting there is a non-issue. As is Editing a post. Not for ex-twitter people, apparently.
