Just discovered Lemmy because of Sync closing down (Though I've been a fan since the Hawkwind days) Is there anywhere I can get an ELI5 for this Fediverse thingy? I see there's a UK-centric Feddit but I can't get my head round how they're connected
Another way to think about the fediverse is you know all those annoying "local" newspapers that have maybe one or two local articles then a billion clickbait or advertisements disguises as articles that could be from anywhere. Well each trumptonnews.co.uk or pontypamdyadvertiser.co.uk or greendalegazzette.com is like an instance but all the articles are shared....except hopfully for threads it is interesting stuff not guff.
