Kbin, Mastodon, Peertube, anything in the Fediverse adheres to ActivityPub standard, which is the protocol that all of these sites use to communicate.
Not a stupid question at all!
Right now, lemmy.ml is the biggest Lemmy instance and the "flagship" site. There are several other Lemmy instances across the internet. They are all connected with each other - or "federated" - meaning each instance can see all of the posts of any instance it's federated with. Since every instance is federated with each other, you will get the same content no matter where your account is. So even though you are on lemmy.world, you can see everything that is posted to lemmy.ml.
E.g. even though I'm from lemm.ee, i still saw your post!!
Or: ✅ are you a parent who gives their child permission to access this site?
This reminds me of those website ads that'd tell you to ask your parents first.
I pretty much completely cut news out months ago and my mental health has improved immensely. I totally get the importance staying knowledgeable and up to date on world news, but it was just too much for me.
Oh, sorry to bring up the same issue again. Thanks for the response. I'll shut up now 🙂
This doesn't auto archive your image. It's only if you click on one of those archive links that it's archived.
I hate to keep bringing up weird sorting quirks...
but is anyone else running into 4 year old posts sticking at the top of some communities in Hot sort (like here: https://lemm.ee/c/unixporn@lemmy.ml)? It seems to be an instance specific thing.
Definitely not a big deal, but i thought I would mention it. Thanks again for keeping this place maintained! Server has been running great and i just added a community recently too. Can't wait for this community to grow.
Chipping away at GTNH. I know it's memed to death but it's legit a great pack! The progression is tuned so well.
