It has potential but the learning curve is starting to be a real drag for me. I’m confused by this setup in general and don’t particularly feel like getting a phd in lemmying just to shitpost, you know?
Please let me know what areas you are struggling with and I’ll do my best to explain. I think the difficulty of Lemmy is being exaggerated and maybe if things are explained succinctly it will help the community tremendously. I will try my best.
I’m still very new myself, so probably I’ve not yet hit the point in the curve where things get confusing. But it’s good to know that gifs work just fine.
I just don’t understand all these ‘instances’ or whatever. Do you need a separate login/pw for all of them? I tried registering for beehaw for example but it just sits there spinning its wheels whenever i hit submit. Idk I’ll give it a chance I guess but I’m pretty underwhelmed so far. I just don’t understand why a forum to shitpost needs to be so complicated…
You do not need a separate login per instance. You can make one login on one instance and communicate with all the others as long as the instance you are trying to communicate with is not banned by your instance. I can give further clarification upon request.
