No, fennec the android lemmy app by me. I wasn’t aware of browser when I chose that name and so far no better ideas were suggested, so we’re going by fennec rn

For Android: fennec does this.

Spoilers: I’m this app’s developer :)

Simple explanation: imagine an instance as an apartment house, where communities are apartments (where people can gather). You also have neighbor buildings (instances) with their own apartments. You can go and visit them freely if you want. In that case, federation will be like a city I guess

It’s amazing how well it handles the load now compared to just a few weeks before

I’d rather agree about mastadon, but not about Lemmy. I’ve seen people from (I assume) ~20 up to 40+. For example, I’m around 27 and I have few friends who were using Lemmy for almost a year now, they’re in their early 20s.

But yes it’s mostly nerds.
