MODERATORS
I think that’s a pretty good analogy. One of the things I’m still struggling with is how communities work across instances. If I follow casual conversations on one instance, will I see posts on that community from other instances? Or do I have to follow each individual instance of that community? As I’m trying to find new communities to follow, I often get confused if I’m already following a specific community or which instance I should choose to follow it on.
You can see posts/conversations from other instances if the instances are federated(communicate with each other), which most are/do(?). You just have so subscribe to the communities that aren't on your instance to do so. But some instances aren't federated. For example, Beehaw defederated from lemmy.world (and another I forget which) early on due to the open sign ups and moderations issues. I'm on lemme.world, I can go on a beehaw community, I can see the posts, and read through the conversations, but I don't think they can see if I reply to anything( so I don't). But this is where I start to lose my grasp on the technology too, so if anyone more knowledgeable than me wants to chime in...
