If an account is created on any specific server, like !Lemmy.world does that mean if the server does shut down, the account data is lost?
Also for username availability, could we create an account in a different server where the name is not used yet?
Again though, you’re leaving the aggregation up to the user. They would have to know of the existence of those other communities to even add them via multi style. To my knowledge we weren’t looking for more focused, we were looking for an aggregation platform like Reddit without the monetization of our content and moderation efforts.
How could you know how the feature will come out, if it even does? We are early days here. The multis could be created by mods or other users who enjoy that type of stuff.
I think we got to try to be optimistic and help create what we want here.
What do you think I’m trying to do by discussing it? If the core of the platform is not that of an aggregator, then it’s not designed to be a replacement to Reddit. That is fine of course, but it’s not what I’m looking for and lemmy shouldn’t say it’s a replacement Reddit when it’s a billion tiny scaled down versions of Reddit where you don’t have any concentration of the users.
True. I’m not sure anyone said it’s a replacement. The furthest i’d go is saying it has the potential to be as good. Down the road from here.
If we have good posters and good communities. It will at the very least be something cool 🙂
