Is there an app for Lemmy?
It's called Jerboa for Lemmy on Android but I can't get it to work right now. I just joined.
Everything is struggling due to the Reddit influx. The closer you are to the top of lists like awesome-lemmy-instances the more you're getting crushed right now. Also means already strugglling instances are going to struggle even more.
Damn and here I am trying to understand what instances even are.
Think of instances as "continents" where communities (think of them as "countries") and users set up their base. For example, you're now in the lemmy.world instance. That means you are a resident of the lemmy.world instance.
You can "travel" to other instances and participate in the communities they have there too and vice versa.
