And when you get there, you're overwhelmed with options:

Should I use this server? Or this one? What are the differences? Does it matter? Should I create an account on each of the servers I think I'd like? After all.. I can.. but is this how it's supposed to be used?

Well, what is each meant to represent? Should communities be constructed around the concept of topics, or should there be a server for each topic?

And please don't use any variant of "everybody can do it whichever they want", because this just avoids the responsibility of offering a personal answer and shifts it to them.

Personally I think the first (communities=topics)., while servers should provide voluntary redundancy for each other in case one of the servers has an inconvenient change of policies or circumstances for the users.

But I am not on the creative team of Lemmy, so my vision might differ from theirs. Also, I'm willing to change my belief if more solid arguments are presented.

This only states the multiple ways of how one can use lemmy, but neither envisions how one should use it. And vision is important for the non technical user, especially when exploring new grounds, because vision makes him go further. Not infinite overwhelming possibilities, technicalities and potential headaches. It's simple or it's complicated.

Actually, what they got in return were partners that were democratic and aligned in principles and values. Now the US has diverged from democratic values in favour of authoritarian ones. In consequence, the US starts attacking democracies and befriends other authoritarian regimes to which they aspire to.

This seems to cine around to the topic of merging communities across servers

Eternity Android client allows grouping communities into a multi community, but it only helps on getting consolidated feed, not necessarily reaching the same people

Is there a way to move myself as an user from one server to another?

What's the vision for using lemmy? User should create an account on one server, and use all? Or should create users on multiple servers? The first one seems like the way to go, but it wasn't quite clear for me when I signed up

This should be among the first priorities. It would really help kick things off. Not only niche communities, but bigger ones as well. They represent topics of interest. I think I've seen a thing like macro community in one of the clients?! Could that be it?

Isn't Reddit or Lemmy pretty much just a structured forum?
