I’m still trying to get used to Lemmy; the main thing confusing me is the federated bit.

I just want to access Lemmy and its content; how do I do that? Currently I’m just going to old.lemmy.world and using that as a starting point.

Is there another instance you would recommend as the default one?

The two main reasons I ask are:

  1. I want to know if there are things I am simply missing out on and there’s a better way to browse Lemmy.

  2. I really don’t like cloudflare and have it disabled in Javascript. I don’t want to leave it enabled for lemmy.world.

    Another stupid follow up question (related to 2.)

    How did you see this post?

    In other words, exactly how do I get lemmy.world content on slrpnk.net?

      Lemmy.world sends your post to slrpnk.net if someone there is subscribed to this community and thus I can see it in my client just as any other local post.
