For your second day here
Hello again! You're less of a newbie now, and you found some amazing communities! We can start talking about the Fediverse. I hope you didn't forget to read the rules for lemmy.world!
You must've realised that we addressed Lemmy and kBin users differently. And what is this Fediverse people keep talking about, anyways?
Lemmy and kBin are two different platforms, and they can perfectly interact with each other! This means that they are a part of the federation. And they are only two members of the vast Fediverse.
As a great lemming once said: Fediverse is basically like a group chat, but for websites. This means that federated websites all agree to share their content with each other, constantly, at the same time.
If you're annoyed with posts all over the internet (and for now, until Lemmy gets that feature, also within Lemmy) going to different instances and not your home instance, then I have something for you :) I made this userscript (Lemmy post), which rewrites all links everywhere to always point to your home instance, so you don't need to mess with copy/pasting URLs anywhere and so on :)
