I'm just getting familiar with lemmy fediverse and trying to make my way through it after getting out from reddit. I'm trying out liftoff app for android and I'm seeing way more double posts from different instances from same users. Same content from same users on multiple instances. I thought fediverse supposed to, You post in whatever instance you are and it'll be shared among all instances. I'm more confused now.

It hasn't reached evolution just yet. It's still a bunch of bacteria swirling around fighting for resources, slowly but surely taking the form of a proper ecosystem.

Let's be completely frank: the place is a confusing, buggy mess that only a 3rd of users seem to fully understand. But it's much less of one than it was last week. And much less than the week before that.

This is going to get better, it's just going to take some time and patience from everyone.
