Genuine question, since the subreddit r/BuyFromEU is becoming larger and larger, actual migration feels due. Of course, we should use both platforms but right now using Reddit is more valuable and hence this platform is relatively small…
Any ideas?

Make it easier to actually use. Why are there so many options to sign up, what does it all mean, why do so many of those servers need verification, how do I know which ones I need to sign up for? It’s a mess. I have no idea if this comment will even work, does the server matter here?
I had the same thoughts the other day when I registered.
I’m decently tech savvy - run a Linux server at home with virtual machines and docker containers, self-host a website that’s written and updated through the terminal/command line. So not a genius but more inclined than many but I was at a pause when I opened up the site.
The pause was what does an instance mean, is it important later on and all sorts which I needed to figure out before trying to read the instances. Those are two massive barriers back to back when in reality none of it matters.
Welcome to Lemmy!
What do you think about this post? https://old.reddit.com/r/BuyFromEU/comments/1j0xkqa/lemmy_as_an_alternative_to_reddit_using/
This post on Reddit is what made me sign up for Lemmy. It’s really needed, otherwise I wouldn’t have understood how to do it.
Great job on this post!
Glad you made it, feel free if you have any questions!
Thanks for sharing that and for all your work in it, I think it’s very well explained and put together.
Happy to help!
Welcome
You’re on a good instance. It does not matter.
How can we help you?
Huh? What does that even mean?
You said you were not sure your comment was going to make it. It did, your instance is well managed, the admin takes care of it.
There are different servers because everyone can host one and connect it to the network.
Verification is needed to avoid bots

Feel free if you still have questions
Why is an admin taking care of my comment? Can’t I just comment on stuff?
Rereading your comment, when I meant “takes care of it”, I meant the server/instance, not the comment.
You are of course commenting without anyone taking care of anything.
On Reddit, admins are taking care of the servers as well to keep the site running, why would it be different here?
But the admins don’t do anything with my comment unless it breaks the rules.
