They probably have a free choice to review who can join, which blocks the federated part that allows a federated user to log in?
It could be different since it’s decentralized
It also feels faster when loading, though slower when you enter a post or save a comment.
The more I read about the Fediverse, the more I try to relate it to Reddit. I guess the Fediverse is like Reddit, but each subreddit is self-hosted. And you can subscribe to all the self-hosted subreddits that you want, from within the subreddit you created your user in.

But also I can't find a way to subscribe to Pixelfed on lemmy.world?
It seems that I can't log in to other instances with my lemmy.world user. I had hoped for that to be centralized, but I guess that beats the purpose.
At least I can just log into lemmy.world and access those instances and read/write/interact with them from that user.
I read a bit about it here. It seems like a much better model than Reddit. It looks like each instance is controlled by the instance creator, who also supplies the hardware. But it is much more free and open. The only controllers I see are the ones hosting the instances, however it is easy to move from one instance to another, same for content.
I tried to log in to behaw and others with my lemmy.world user but the login just works for a very long time and nothing happens. I dont know.
I too am here because Reddit can eat a fat one. However I dont know who is behind this, e.g. who I am sharing my data with and how that works...
wefwef.app makes the shift extremely easy.
I plan on using Lemmy exclusively for a period of time. Especially when Reddit lists on the stock exchange mid 2023. I then also will delete my very old Reddit account.
About defederation and mitigation, if one instance was fucked by the.. owner (who owns an instance? is it like, someone hosts the instance on their server?) then the subs/communities would have to be rebuilt again, the posts wouldn't migrate etc.
