I have no idea what I'm doing, but I made it here. I hope to understand instances and whether I need to create other accounts soon.

You'll get it in no time. The best way I've seen it described is email. You can have outlook. I can have Juno. Our pal can have aol. But we can all still talk to each other and see the same emails just as tho we all had the same email provider. Same thing here with instances. They're each like an individual Reddit but we can all see them (for the most part, some have been blocked by others, etc.) And comment in then from our own instances.
From what I can tell, it most closely resembles usenet.
If you make an account on one instance, you can read and write on the others!

It's pretty fun here!
Is this and RIF style app for here?
It's one of many. Most of them see the same content even if they're on different servers, so no need to stress about missing out. Happy exploring!
Jerboa is very RiF like. Unfortunately if you use Lemmy.world it won't work until that instance updates. Currently on Connect for lemmy and it is ok.
I definitely miss Jerboa. But the past month has already brought so much chaos to my internet use. What's a little more?
It's working now!!

Didn't feel like waiting for the end, been here a few weeks now.
Yeah I followed the link too. Didn't know about lemmy before RIF closed
Same, glad to join. I am now realizing how much of a pain it is using old reddit on mobile, fuck that lol. Not touching the official app.
Hello, fellower RIF users.
Time to see what this place has. Kinda like moving into a new house.
RIF was the app that I used when I decided to go deeper into Reddit. Been using it for the past 7 years until today. You will be missed.
I'm proud to be done with reddit. I'm eagerly exploring my new addiction. I'm a lemon head.
Lemon head? Is that what we're called?
I can live with that.
