A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Honestly it's all pretty confusing to me I'm getting better and better but I think its gonna take a couple weeks.
Honestly? I fucking love it.
Its SO fast (I have my own instance), and instead of subscribing to subreddits and one server, now I subscribe to communities and multiple instances.
The people are responsive.
Only problem is missing niche communities, and discoverability, but that will improve with time hopefully with something like multi-reddits.
See like I dont even know what you just said lol. I don't know what an instance is or what a server means in this context, and i know what a community is kinda but no idea why they are called something.something//Lemmy.something.biz.kbin haha. and I dont know what multiple instances is.
I've got a lot to learn. But hey I managed to reply to this so im getting somewhere.
Think of lemmy as like an email (except everyone can see it). You have an email address "steakfries" and the domain you registered your email on "@lemmy.one" so if I want to email you I have to enter in @[email protected]
I can "email" you from any domain, be it Gmail, yahoo, my own server, etc and you can likewise respond.
