If you choose a less popular server you will avoid processing delays and make it easier on the mastodon founder Eugen Rochko who is struggling to maintain the mastodon.social server. That said, mastodon.social seems to be holding up reasonably well even with thousands of new users joining.

You can pick any one and try it out. Mastodon.social seems to be the most popular right now. You can change server later if you don’t like the one you’re on. Mathias @Klangable@mastodon.social

Hi folks, I was going to sign up but it’s saying I need to pick a server? Which should I choose? Will I be able to see others if I just pick any server? I don’t want to be unable to find anyone! This is very weird! Thanks, Emma -- Dr Emma L Briant
