Additionally, In order to not overwhelm the largest Lemmy instances, I opted to register with a smaller one. Should I apply the same logic to mastodon.social and the other large instances?

Thanks!

    The benefit to finding a Mastodon server with a community that you find interesting is that you get a local feed that is somewhat relevant to your interests. If’s far from necessary but it ads one more dimension to surfacing content.
