A roulette would be nice, the system balances the load of each instance. The downside of this is that it will negate the theme or purpose of the instance since the assigning of the members would likely be randomized instead of joining by choice of instance values and purpose.
I think that’s a pretty low stakes problem. I would wager it’s better to get people in the door so they can begin to understand what it even means to be on an instances that fits the vibe they’re looking for.
Even if ideally we could migrate, it’s always possible to just create an account elsewhere.
It’s low stakes to you because you don’t care about it. It’s not low stakes for the people who set up instances specifically based around building communities with a common theme.
I think it could benefit severely from having like a couple of “newbie” instances where people get placed unless they choose otherwise, where their accounts then have to be migrated from by choice when a month has passed or something. Like a beginner server on an MMO with people who help newcomers understand the basics.

That’s very true! I don’t think it should be completely random but something instances could opt-in to or have some other opt-out criteria.
It would indeed be bad if an instance focused on a specific mindset, goals, or subject was essentially invaded by clueless new users!

Yeah I think opt-in would be great.
