Thanks to anyone who approves me to join for Lemmy through this lemmy.ml instance.

P.S., I tried three times to sign up through the lemmy.world instance, but it failed. πŸ₯²

Thank you, mate.

Welcome to Lemmy! I hope you have a great time here! πŸ˜ƒ

Sometimes instances can have technical problems, but they are usually short-lived. It's fun to explore other Lemmy instances though!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Thanks for the wish, mate.

Keep trying on other instances unless your views align with .ml. Otherwise you'll be automatically deemed a tankie by a lot of people and that might alter your experience on the fediverse.

Welcome to Lemmy!

Thanks for the advice, mate. But, can I simply move to the other instances or I need to make a new account in that particular instance that I want to move?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (2 children)

youd have to make a new account. also there are other platforms that fully integrate with lemmy like mbin example: https://moist.catsweat.com that dont look like someone forgot half the css.

Thanks for the response and assist, mate.

You can also use alternate UIs, or apps.

I run my own photon instance for use on desktop, but you can use the official one to use any lemmy account with the photon UI.

I discovered Alexandrite on desktop and it looks pretty damn good too. And it's pretty fast.

You'll need to sign up for a new account on the other instance. I'd recommend you persevere with getting a lemmy.world one and use that as your main one. Keep the one you've got in case of an lemmy.world outage.

Content is generally shared amongst the main instances so you'll generally be able to see the same stuff wherever you create an account. Most of the Lemmy apps have multi-account functionality so you can add both.

I guess I’ll stick to .ml instance because it’s seem valuable, limited and rare compared to others.

I’d recommend you persevere with getting a lemmy.world one and use that as your main one.

I would advise against lemmy world and .ml, .world is already way too big, the day they fail, all lemmy will collapse. Place like lemm.ee or sopuli or Blahaj, or Fedia if you prefer mbin are way nicer.

That said, .ml works good enough to discover lemmy, don't panic too much

You will have to make a new account on the new instance.

It will be just another addition to your collection of lemmy accounts.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I’m still a little bit confused about your explanation. The instances are different account from one and another, right? Not like Reddit that we can follow the subreddit in a single account.

.world is a shithole full of fascists and reddit libs. Probably for the best you joined through another instance.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Really, what your opinion about .ml instance?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

It's pretty simple in general: .ml is pretty much left leaning or straight up communist/socialist, while .world is mixture of the rest meaning centre to right (as everyone leftist is already on ml or hexbear, or lemmygrad).

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I see. I heard that .ml is consist of the developer of the Lemmy itself, is that true? One more thing, is that .ml the pioneer/first instance in the Lemmyverse?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yes, lead developer is on .ml and also fits my description.
