I still don't get it lmao
I made an account with kbin because the interface most resembles reddit, but apparently that means I have a lemmy account or something?
It might help to think of it like email. If you sign up with gmail, you have a gmail account. You don't necessarily have a microsoft account but people @outlook.com can still send your @gmail.com account email and you can still read it no matter where it's from
In a similar way, you have a kbin.social account. You don't have a lemmy account but you can still see posts from people in lemmy.world
So if I go to kbin.social homepage, I am in fact seeing posts to any number of sites? Or is the notionof a site not accurate? I'm still kinda confused. Despite my age I'm a fucking luddite lol
Yes, and you can see where it came from in the post header.
