    It should be noted one of the oversights being worked on right now is that people from one instance who make reports can only have those reports answered in that instance. An admin discovered this and so, being on lemm.ee, the admin asked us to make lemmy world alts. Thus @[email protected] is me.

        Lemm.ee is an instance. Lemmy.world is an instance. They’re two parts of the same website system, but they’re also separate in some ways, like two states in the US.

        Suppose you’re in New York and you go on vacation to Florida. Then say you want to call someone in New York. Your cell phone has a New York number, so it won’t work with the cell phone towers near you unless you put in the person’s full area code.

        Lemmy instances are like that, except there are no area codes. So suppose you’re on one Lemmy site and you make a report on someone. The report will only be visible to moderators of the same part of the Lemmy system because there are no area code equivalents on here.

        The admin on Lemmy did the equivalent of Commissioner Gordon convincing Batman to be in both New York and Florida at the same time, so that when the Joker strikes, Batman can hear the people in Florida ask for him help from New York.
