Lemmy being so confusing is partly why I was upset about Reddit taking a dump. I don't understand the difference in all the Lemmy things or what to sign up for. I was excited about Sync because it seems to make it easier to understand and see everything. I just want something that will replicate a frontpage which is what Sync is trying to do. I don't have the desire or time to learn the ins and outs of it all.

It's actually not that complicated. Lemmy just works like email. You can use different email providers (lemmy calls them instances) like gmail.com or yahoo.com and they work together. What you call subreddits is called communities and they are managed by a instance. If one instance does something that you don't like, you can use another. They all work independently but exchange data. If you have any questions see this. Hope this helps
