I discovered reddit for myself about 3ish years ago, I don't even remember how. Used the official app and still don't know why people shitting on it so much, the app itself is fine, like not smooth or especially pleasant to use but fine. So yeah, been using it daily - reading cool tech posts, watching dunk memes, asking dumb questions - all the good stuff. Saw the shitshow - decided it's time to leave, saw Lemmy as an alternative - decided to join. Jerboa is fine, the plan is to do all the same stuff.

Lemme isn't centralized while Reddit is. In practice that means there's a lot of "reddits", every one of which has its own sub reddits, server to handle users, storage for posts and so on. Then all of those servers are connected between each other so while your account is in one instance (Soupli) you're still able to access sub reddits from different instances. If you look up the channels (sub reddits) available you'll see they have @ part which shows where the channel is located.
Well, I prefer not to put a "\n" in dates but you do you mate
