That's the problem with federated platforms is that sign up is often confusing.

However you can go to a large instance like lemmy.world. sign up is literally just as easy as creating an account on any other site. At which point you don't need to sign up for other instances unless you really want to or if they are defederated, as long as the instance you created the account on is federated with the instance you want to interact with you can comment there with your account from the other instance.

The boost Mobile app works pretty good too

Sounds good in theory im sure, but as someone who is on day two of lemmy, (lemmee... lemme?....idk.) half of what you said is gibberish to me. lol.

  • federated: Describes a system that works like email. Users join servers, which talk to other servers and allow their users to talk to each other.
  • instance: One particular server. I'm using Lemmy.ml. Your instance is lemm.ee
  • defederated: An action a server can take to stop talking to another server, preventing its users from interacting with the defederated server.

Hope this clears some stuff up.

While it needs to improve... The entire point of federation is that there are multiple entry points.

Freedom aknt free
