Run two and check the logs. You'll see about 20% of your requests will log on the second instance. So currently, that's 20% of your DNS requests not being filtered.

You'll also find some devices just latch on the the second and never use the first - again, in your scenario, these are not being filtered.

That's not how the two entries for DNS works. Devices will use both rather randomly, and therefore some requests will not be filtered.

The best way is to run two instances for redundancy.

I tried to sign up with a gmx email address - but the email never came through. I checked All Mail, Spam, etc. It's definitely not there. Signed up again using a gmail.com one, and email came through immediately. Just waiting for that account to be verified by Tom and I'll stop using this one...

Comments are ok, but I think if kbin has microblog posts from Mastodon, they don't appear in Lemmy. I'm in two minds as to which interface I prefer - nows really the time to pick one before I subscribe to too many things! :)
