Is it just me or did Lemmy suddenly became more active now that Sync for Lemmy is released? (lemm.ee)

I don't know if this is just a placebo effect, but it feels like there's a lot more socialization and faster upvotes in the past hour Sync was released.

I am here because of sync, but I am also confused. I made a .ml account and not a .world account. Does it matter? Could someone tell me the difference? Thanks.

lemmy.world and lemmy.ml are different "instances" of Lemmy. Anyone can host one, and every Lemmy instance can talk to other Lemmy instances, and similarly any other software using ActivityPub. It's part of the "Fediverse", or the federated universe.

In the long term, it won't matter unless lemmy.ml starts defederating from other instances or other instances start defederating from it. "Defederating" is a term for when the admins of an instance choose not to talk to another specific instance.
