Lemmy.ml and beehaw.org getting hammered with traffic because of spez ama
(lemmy.blahaj.zone)
Everything about Lemmy; bugs, gripes, praises, and advocacy.
For discussion about the lemmy.ml instance, go to !meta@lemmy.ml.

Lol. There's gonna be a lot of heads exploding when people realize what the fediverse is and how it works.
I don't even understand, myself. ATM I have one kbin account and a few Lemmy accounts. Not sure if there is an advantage to having an account on a kbin instance vs a Lemmy instance or anything??
At the moment, Jerboa seems like the best way to browse on Android (although nowhere near as polished as many of the bigger Reddit apps obviously), so it seems like picking a compatible instance with that works best right now. Still, it's all a bit overwhelming!
Just wrote a big post about Lemmy Vs kbin's, so I don't have to write it twice :)) https://kbin.social/m/asklemmy@lemmy.ml/t/9489/-/comment/40195
I have no clue how to view that link on my home instance
Maybe this link works better? https://sh.itjust.works/comment/33194
yes!, i need to learn how these links work!
sadly thats sometimes a little difficult. Entering the link in the search only works if its the link from the original instance. One can geht this link by following the colerfull rainbow icon under the post (in web view).
Basically the main difference is who your admin team is. So that means different moderation styles, allowing NSFW or not, allowing downvotes, controlling which communities get made (or not), etc.
You can create communities on your home instance if your admins allow it (Lemmy.ml and Kbin do, Beehaw does not). But you have to make an account on an instance to create a community there.
It's totally reasonable to jump between instances until you find one you like.
I'm on beehaw right now and didn't realize creating communities was disabled. Very interesting. Thanks!
