It's not quite that simple though. It would be like if Yahoo email users weren't able to see emails from GMail users in some cases. Like beehaw people can't see posts from us lemmy.world users.

For me it was the only one that actually let me sign up. The others just spun forever and ever after submitting.
And now I have the Pearl Jam song stuck in my head. Thanks.
I have a feeling that as time goes by (and if Lemmy sees more migration) we'll end up with everyone choosing a de facto default server for each community. Which kind of defeats the purpose.
But they could pick up where the now defunct community left off, right? Like, the cached copy from another server could be imported on a new server elsewhere?
So are these other servers just routing requests from their users to your server's community? Or are they actually copying everything over every so often (caching) and serving up the requests themselves? How real time is it, I guess is what I'm asking?
Can someone explain why if I choose All/Hot the first page will look "normal" for a bit, but then it starts updating/scrolling constantly? Like I can't keep my place, new items are continuously being added and I can't even finish reading a headline. I don't see any settings to prevent that. What am I doing wrong?
Is there any way to prevent that? I'll be reading a post title and everything shifts out from under me constantly.
Can you point out an explanation for how this works? Like, if I run my own "instance" of Lemmy in a Docker container, what all is it doing if I and a few friends subscribe to communities on other instances (eg BeeHaw, lemmy.ml, etc). Is my little instance mirroring all of that data constantly? Just when one of us requests it? I need to know what I'm getting myself into basically.

The thumb thing is real. It's like muscle memory every time I unlock my phone.
Sync is/was a fantastic app. One of the best designed and functioning Android apps I've used. Damn shame.
That analogy doesn't hold when yahoo can block gmail and proton can block all yahoo content, etc.
