I’m clearly not understanding this platform as well as I thought, I should probably watch a video or something!
The memes and boobs are great, but I’d love to get more reliable news and local information, seems like every Canadian one dies or is unpopular (fair enough given the limited user base which is still kind of nice)
And the news + politics seems to crash, but that’s because I’m still using .World …I think?
It’s more like email than a regular platform. Each insurance is a Lemmy “provider” but from any instance you can reach every other instance. It even used the @server for user names and communities like email. It also means you have a technology@lemmy.world, technology@lemmy.ml, …
think of all of this like email, you get data from other providers and interact with people and posts using an “email address”. im oversimplifying it, but that’s how i started to wrap my head around all of this
