Additionally, In order to not overwhelm the largest Lemmy instances, I opted to register with a smaller one. Should I apply the same logic to mastodon.social and the other large instances?

Thanks!

    Yes, find a smaller instance, mastodon.social is mid anyways and some servers have them defederated because of spam

    smaller instances also usually have interesting local timelines compared to big ones
