or maybe some other terminology would be better? lots of people get confused when you ask them to choose an instance, sometimes I think even the word “proxy”, “host”, or “hub” is simpler
the specific terms aren’t my point, just a discussion to see if we can come up with a better name
…. Im talking about lemmy servers. Calling lemmy instances servers. I don’t care what people call discord servers im saying they already call them servers. So people will understand what a lemmy server is because they already know what a discord server is and the concept is similar enough they will immediately understand how lemmy servers work and can still communicate with one another.
Ah, I think I get it now.
