Instances - what are they and how does it work together. Also slow password reset emails. I have three accounts now.
I still don’t really understand but i am in 🤷♂️
Think about instances as email providers. You pick a provider (feddit.dk, feddit.uk, lemmy.wtf etc.) to access everything from all the other Lemmy providers + the rest of "the Fediverse", which fx consists of Mastodon, PeerTube and Pixelfed.
Was it on Feddit.dk you had issues with slow emails? That might be something the admin, @SorteKanin@feddit.dk should look into.
Thank you for the reply. The thing is, and I think this will apply to others too, I’m just a casual user. Unknown boxes scare me.
Couldn’t they be hidden away on signup (prefilled) and only visible when you click ‘advanced’.
Also, I have a mastodon account too. Are they now the same thing?
What "boxes" are you talking about here, when signing up on a Lemmy provider?
Mastodon and Lemmy is different software, serving two different functions, but they are connected. So it is possible for a user on Mastodon to create and comment on posts from Mastodon, on Lemmy.
