I’m new to the fediverse and not sure how it works just yet. Can someone help me understand? My account was created on Lemmy.ml, will it no longer work and I’ll have to make another?
Are you aware that ml in lemmy.ml stands for marxism-leninism and that the admins of your instance don't support any critique of the chinese government? I'm asking because I think a lot of new users chose lemmy.ml randomly - mostly because it was big - and if they knew this, many of them would have chosen differently.
no one would, because people who already get it act like any of this makes sense
there’s waaaaaaaaaaaaay too much nerding out over how it works, “federating”, and being open instead of being user friendly.
wants to compete with reddit, but its accessibility on a big scale is near 0 with the current approach
Really had high hopes for Lemmy after coming over from Reddit, but the active community here is just so busy jerking off about being federated and banning threads.
