We're really building something here!

Just landed here from Reddit. I feel like I need a breakdown on how to use Lemmy and KBin and the differences and just everything in general lol

Wefwef is a good webapp that looks like Apollo that’s a lot nicer than the lemmy webapp

Edited name because I’m dumb

I think it looks and feels nice, but I'm encountering all sorts of errors in literally every app (including wefwef, that decided to stop working completely as I tried to open it 5 minutes ago). While trying to comment right now, I got errors twice (this is from Connect for Lemmy).

Servers are currently upgrading, just gotta be patient for a bit until they sort it out.

IMO memmy is super nice and polished (the best app so far), the lemmy.world servers are pretty hammered at the moment, but they are due for an upgrade in the next few hours, so theoretically everything should get better. wefwef is pretty cool too

Thanks I’ll check that out! Apologies for the dumb question but I’m still new to all this but do I have to create a new username and login for every Lemmy website or instance or can I just use my lemmy.world one?
