I just want to say old.lemmy.world is fantastic. However, old can have negative connotations. Can we declare that OLD be an acronym for Optimal Lemmy Delivery?

The technical aspect is pretty far outside my understanding. I was mostly curious if the user experience is different on one vs the other.

Largely no, old.lemmy.world is on the lemmy.world instance, which is the biggest difference right now.

Oh well then, other than the potential for API version differences possibly causing outages then no. They ought be identical.

The API versioning breakage is also fully hypothetical on my end, I've no idea quite how mature Lemmy's API is at the moment, and how often breaking changes are made.
