can’t it be simply !bocchitherock or !btr ? why is there @sopuli.xyz at the end
The @sopuli.xyz indicates the community was made on that instance. Basically your instance is talking with that instance to keep things in sync. This is what allows me on lemmy.nrd.li to talk to you on lemmy.ml via sopuli.xyz.
oh, alright that makes sense
its because this community is from another instance of lemmy called sopuli.xyz which is the name of the site’s link, when you see communities from other instances it has the @ then site link on it
so does this mean communities with no @ symbol next to them are local?
i think so yes
Yeah (assuming the current version of the lemmy UI), if the sidebar says !community@server it is remote, if it only says !community then it is local. For local communities there is basically an implicit @yourserver after the community name.
