Who owns lemm.ee and why do people choose it over other instances?

why do people choose it over other instances?

Non-techy people want a big instance, but .world goes offline too often and .ml doesn't allow new sign ups.

You sure about that? I just made this account a few days ago.

They closed sign ups during the early days of the migration up until recently. I just missed the moment they're open again since I'm not interested in large instances.
