Not really. In fact, I'm only subbed to a handful of the subs on my own instance. I do think it's run well, so I stick around and will probably throw some money at the admin once I figure out how to do so.

But I don't care if a community is based on my instance or a different one. In fact just the opposite, I want to sub to communities across lots of instances so I won't be impacted as much if one goes down.

I joined sh.itjust.works because I wanted an instance that just works, and it has delivered what it says on the tin.
