Long story short, there is no ideal generalist instance. If you open the top 20 instances (https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy/)
The next page has reddthat.com which is known to have federation issues with LW due to its location in Australia, and lemmy.today which does not defederate anyone
Honestly I'd say lemmy.world is probably the ideal for redditors, I agree it's too big, but it's probably the safest option for people without a lot of knowledge. sh.itjustworks is also IMO fine if you know the person isn't offended by language.
That's the main issue. Its size creates 5-days delay with some instances
The issues have been here for months, are not going to be fixed any time soon as the latest Lemmy version still has issues like the pictures one: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/5196
