I don’t fully understand how lemmy works completely yet. But for example I made an account at Division by zero and subscribe here to post. Is it not just a more inconvenient version of making a reddit account and being able to post practically anywhere?
Also what’s the difference between making an account at one instant and just making one centralized account for the social media?
That’s pretty much it, yes.
There’s no central control.
In a practical sense this creates a better experience because if an instance does something like… allow too many bots, or include ads, everyone can just block them
