Hello, world!
(lemmy.tostiman.com)
Welcome to the fediverse!
I still haven't quite figured out how this works but here is a comment from a completely unrelated instance!
It works like email. All instances talk in the background between each other.
Okay so expanding this analogy, I can email anyone including myself (posting to my own instance), and everyone can reply all at any time? Or am I slightly off?
No that's correct. Slight deviation from email is that email is unicast - you send email to one person (and if you have multiple recepients it gets copied that many times). On lemmy the code on instances does something more like a optimized broadcast when you post to your own instance when someone is subscribed to a community on your instance.
Same lol. But I'm glad it send to be working. I'm getting used to this slowly but surely.
And it seems to be improving fast enough, and I'll try to contribute soon, too, once I get used to how this all works.
You good, fam.
Hello from The Outpost! 👋
Hey! 👋
Good day to you!
Oh that’s cool, I knew I could read from remote communities but didn’t know I can make new posts on them too
