MODERATORS
This is the way. If you don't like the moderators, don't play on their servers. It's that simple.
After reading the "we are full" notices and doing some research I was able to easily create an account on lemmy.ca increasing the represention for BC.
New lemmy.ca member checking in! This is pretty cool.
Screw your generic server URIs...

Solution: change servers
It's at the top of the list on join-lemmy.org's popular server list, next to lemmy.world and beehaw.org, of course new users will sign up on the more popular ones. Plus, a few posts on reddit called out these three which set everything in motion.
Once folks start to understand how it works, they might start to sign up on other ones, for a "cooler handle @ address" for their user, or register a domain and start their own instance like I did.
Anyway, welcome aboard, right?
Yes
I was advised by a redditor to join '.word' because ml was overwhelmed
Not really sure what the difference is tbh. I'm here interacting with an ml community so why not?
I'd like to know if I can make my own subreddit equivalent though?
I guess many newcomers just go the easy way

I joined sopuli.xyz because they have a cute fuzzy animal in a hat as their logo.
Well, hello from feddit.de! Since I'm a german user I thought it'd be only logical to register on a german instance. While new registrations are semi-locked, the criteria for being let in are quite easy to pass and they are mostly in place to filter out spam. Got my account approved right on the next day
