I absolutely understand, I am just trying to think of making it as adoptable as possible. Remember that many people struggled to adapt to Reddit and now lemmy will be adding additional layers of complexity that make entry more cumbersome unless you’re savvier than the average internet user. It isn’t cosmic but it should be considered and mitigated.

just be careful not to go over on the free credits.

I think my concern for adoptability is that a technology community could exist with the same name on lemmy.world as well as on another instance. I think theirs some benefit to creating a user and community pool of names and communities to allow genuine growth. it would also prevent fakes and phishing.

What is the plan to make communities between instances easily accessible? I feel like with mastodon and now lemmy that is the part that concerns me, namely community reach/discoverability

The big video game communities and the Linux communities I was in. Lots of people makes it loud and dumb but also makes for good content to rise to the top
