I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?

I’m a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It’s definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it’s great to see something that isn’t Reddit growing in popularity!

    The interface is nice and friendly, but the way the fediverse and the different instances works is kind of confusing. Still not sure what that’s all about

      If you think about it like Email, it’s exactly the same. Why we have multiple instances? Well why does the United States has multiple states with different laws and governments? That’s what federation is about.

      Doctor Strange Nutomic broke the barriers of the multiverse fediverse and now everyone from each universe instance can visit the other. A lot of stuff is the same like they all have spooderman c/memes but all of them are also kinda different in their own way.

      And DC other instances are in the multiverse fediverse too but aren’t allowed in the Marvel universe particular instances for legal reasons personal reasons so you might sometimes have to go to a DC movie different instance in disguise with a fake mustache alt account.

      This is my understanding of it
