You're viewing a single thread.
As far as the Fediverse goes, I’ve mainly been a microblog user. I just got here (Lemmy, etc.). It’s wild to hear someone groaning about Federation not being perfectly seamless on Lemmy in comparison.
On Mastodon and the Misskey forks, if I’m interested in a thread, it’s time to open a browser tab to OP’s instance otherwise I’ll never see the entire conversation. I haven’t been on Lemmy that long but I’ve never once felt the need to open a post on the community’s home instance rather than my own.
I guess everybody’s got their line but this seems a little silly to me.
Yes federation is easier on Lemmy thanks to communities
Also welcome to Lemmy, here are a few pointers to help you settle in
in my two weeks of using lemmy/mbin seriously, I've had plenty of times federation isn't perfect. mostly from what I understand it's either because of defederation or someone never subscribed yet from my home instance. I did still have to open not my instance's post.
