I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?

I’m a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It’s definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it’s great to see something that isn’t Reddit growing in popularity!

    @primalmotion so… the lemmy.antisocial.ly part of your username is your own instance that you made. And I can ping you or reply to you by writing it as @primalmotion. Interesting. My log in credentials for kbin.social will not transfer to another instance like lemmy.world, though, will it?

        so how do you move to another instance and keep all your comments?

          I don’t think that’s possible since each instance is kind of a silo from each other with regard to your activity on that specific instance, even if you post on other instances… Like since you made a comment/post on one instance that activity stays on that instance.

            Seems reasonable I probably should have expected that to be fair

              That depends. I think the migration process is part of ActivityPub and would need to be implemented in lemmy. With mastodon, you can move from instance to instance almost transparently.
