Correct! Every instance could be it’s own reddit, with it’s own mods and rules. And you can be a part of all of it, or none of it.
It’s a weird way to think of things for those of us who are used to the Diggs and Reddits of the world. There has been somw call for options to ‘consolidate’ or ‘group’ things, but it remains to be seen how or if that’s a reasonable ask.
