Okay this federated stuff is really growing on me.
The idea that you can sign up on any server, and still have a feed from many different servers is pretty cool.
It’s like email but Reddit style
That makes way more sense!
The only roadblock I see is how difficult it is to follow communities outside your main instance. It would be nice if there was a log-in-as option so you can easily subscribe if you come across a page that isn't a part of your instance. Right now you have to either search it on your main, or copy the url over (which I've seen doesn't work all the time, but could be because of server load.)
Mastodon makes it easy to follow someone on a different instance, so I expect it's only a matter of time that Lemmy adds that functionality (especially now with the influx of new users)
