I would love to run an instance but I am too stupid to set one up LOL
This is how I am understanding it. Please correct me if I am wrong.
I'm going to use Reddit as an example, since we all understand that...
So the way I understand this is that backbone is now the whole of the internet instead of just reddit.com.
Each instance would be somewhat akin to a self-hosted subreddit. We can reach any sub from any other sub, since the backbone is now spread across the whole internet instead of just reddit.com.
These subs (instances) are also like old style BB forums in that there can be different categories (communities) hosted by that instance, but those are also still visible across other instances.
So basically people who are making communities here are making a sub in a sub (in Reddit terms).
Do I have that correct?
How is that working for you? I am thinking of switching in my quest to get out of google stuff
