For everything you've always wanted to know about Lemmy but were afraid to make a post for.

Is anyone else seeing double posts / comments?

I see a few every now and then, mostly from lemmy.world, but a few from other instances. Is this a problem on our side or theirs?

*sigh* This subscription problem is getting curiouser and curiouser. I'm able to subscribe to /c/ubuntu@lemmy.ml and /c/peertube@lemmy.ml but I still can't see any posts on either.

I decided to make a post on /c/peertube to see if it would show up. It shows up there, and I can see it here on VLemmy, but that's the only post I can see. Anyone else have this problem?

New to VLemmy, and Lemmy, trying to understand about federation. For example if I search for postgresql in https://browse.feddit.de/ I see only one answer.. Using that to subscribe, but if I search for FreeBSD there is one answer from lemmy.ml and one from lemmy.world.

Does it matter which URL I use?

That means that there are 2 separate communities, one on lemmy.ml and one on lemmy.world. You can choose to join either or both. They will have separate admins and are hosted on their respective servers.

How does vlemmy plan to support itself? I understand as Lemmy grows and vlemmy is subscribed to more and more communities, it will need to replicate those remote instances and that costs money. As members, what should we expect?

as of now, how much resources the server hosting an instance requires, how much perhaps if content and instances double the size? Is that a burden for other instances to have a yet another instance to sync with? if people self-hosted instances for one or a few people only would that make sense?

There is a way to donate. So far seems like there are very few of us supporting, but as more people discover and start to use it hopefully more people will donate.

What is this mysterious way to donate you speak of?

I am having an issue finding some communities listed on the Browse Fedit website. Examples are !hiphopheads@sopuli.xyz and !progmetal@sopuli.xyz
