yes, unfortunately finding, joining and linking to other communities across instances kinda blows now, but given how new lemmy is i think that will improve over time!
Yeah this feels like a big flaw in the systemyeah it’s cool it’s all communal, but being split is weird
Casual users will just want a ‘subscribe’ like you do on Reddit. They’re not going to care about servers and instances and 3 different variations of the same community on different lemmys, that’s just a hurdle.
I know this because nobody in my friend group has made the jump because it’s too confusing. I’m the usual tech-guy early adopter in the group but most of this has gone over my head too.
Thank you! It worked, though quite cumbersome

You can also set your home instance and the links will open on the one that you choose. :)
How do you set your home instance?
What does set your home instance mean?
Set the instance you have an account on/login to day to day.
