  • Not honouring anything. Admin says that even the display of them will be gone. So everything people "bought" will be gone in an instant.

    judy-funnie: "The visual awards themselves will go away, however any award karma from the award will remain."

    How did Lemmy.world become more popular than Lemmy.ml?
  • The name absolutely matters. Federation blah blah doesn't matter what instance blah blah and all that.

    But regular people will flock to a "normal" or "official" sounding name and url. I won't be surprised if lemmy.world becomes the defacto instance

    Welcome, new users!
  • That makes way more sense!

    The only roadblock I see is how difficult it is to follow communities outside your main instance. It would be nice if there was a log-in-as option so you can easily subscribe if you come across a page that isn't a part of your instance. Right now you have to either search it on your main, or copy the url over (which I've seen doesn't work all the time, but could be because of server load.)
