I am recently new to Lemmy as a whole. I didn’t understand what federation meant or how different instances worked and my first instance was .world. It was not a great experience and nearly turned me away from Lemmy as a whole because it seemed just as bad and corrupt as Reddit (although, with less bots.) Someone explained to me how it worked and convinced me to go to a different instance. I think if I had come to a different instance in the first place, I wouldn’t have had that experience. I wonder how many people were like me and weren’t lucky enough to have someone tell them to just move?
