Same... why would I use a smaller instance when the bigger one has more stuff on it? Maybe I just don't understand this instance thing properly, it all just feels so fragmented
Imagine an Instance as an email address. You can still access any content from any instance (mostly). All posts and comments just go through your instance for you to see them
You can even see it looking at the usernames of people in different instances. For example, I see your username as @[email protected], which pretty much identically follows the format of an email address.
