I found a major communication problem with public perception of Lemmy. they seem to think a community is tied to a particular instance (www.reddit.com)

This is a big problem. It creates the illusion that /c/cats on one particular instance is the real /c/cats.

This is the root of re-centralization and it must be pulled out.

When using email, be aware that [email protected] is the real George. All other Georges on all other email servers are fake.

"All other Georges on all other email servers are fake" factoid actualy just statistical error. Average George on email server is real. Emails Georg, who is the ur-george, and has infinite identities on infinite servers, is an outlier adn should not have been counted.
