Loving it so far! I've also found great replacements for all the US software I've been using. Should have done that a long time ago, there are actually amazing non fascist alternatives!
Welcome!
Why is this buyeuropean on feddit.uk but it has an EU flag? I feel like somebody has yet to learn about a major political event that happened in the last few years.
I was looking for reddit alternatives before and didn't pull through. Now that I did (first hour), I dont see why anyone wouldn't "migrate".
Ah, and I'm using "eternity". Reminds me of the old days before reddit turned facebook.
Glad to be here. Switched to vivaldi. On my way to delete amazon, paypal, microsoft and google accounts. Using Signal + an own hostes emailadres from germany. Thinking im on a good way
Well done!
I'm as confused as the next guy, but I'm hanging in there! I'm not sure if the decentralized nature means I'm missing communities because I'm looking in the wrong place, or if there's just fewer stuff around.
Someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I think that you will see more stuff in All if more people from your instance are subscribed to more communities from other instances.
lemm.ee has most of the communities federated.
Do you mean instances can federate with communities and not just other instances?
When you follow a remote community, it doesn't send all of that servers posts. Only posts from that comm. That way, if I'm hosting a small server and subscribe to !guineapigs@lemmy.world, for example, it won't drown my server with the rest of lemmy.worlds posts.
Does that mean what I see in All is a combination of instances my instances is federated with + the comms that users from my instance are subscribed to? So if my instance is federated with another instance and no one from my instance is subbed to any of the comms from that other instance then no one from my instance will see posts from that instance in All?
Sorry for word salad.
