First please don’t ban me I’m new.

lemmy.world, lemmy.ml , lemmy.xxx, lemmy.whatever, etct… + hundreds of clones. Is each of these a Reddit by itself containing many subreddits inside it?

Does that mean if someone in lemmy.xxx/c/jokes posted something interesting that I wont even see it because I’m signed up in lemmy.yyy/c/jokes ?

That is quite a weakness of lemmy compared to reddit. Can I post on lemmy.yyy if I signed up for lemmy.xxx or do I have to sign up for each of them?

Which one should I sign up for?

How can I see all lemmy posts in one place? I can’t believe no one has found a solution to this yet and just let hundreds of clones post repeated things. Also how is each moderated? Is lemmy.yyy moderated by sensitive snowflakes who ban anyone who cusses or offends anyone, while lemmy.xxx is ran by racist nazis? How does this work?

    Works like email - Lemmy.ml, Lemmy.xxx, lemmy.whatever is just the email provider you choose. Just like picking gmail, outlook, yahoo, protonmail, etc. They can still all talk to each other, so the provider you pick doesn’t matter in that regard.

    Instead of sending emails to people, I use this site to send shitposts. The underlying tech is very similar though

      Unless your home instance is defederated right? Then you get shadowbanned from said defederated communities.

        Not sure how that works, someone smarter than me would have to say. You can still read posts from them (unless your instance doesn’t allow it) but can’t comment/post?

          Pretty sure you can comment still but those comments will never show up in the original post. Just your federation’s copy of the post
