So apologies if this is a stupid question as I’m new to Lemmy. Came from Reddit. I moved to lemmy.world and have noticed that lemmy.ml has been popping up as another featured instance. What differs from lemmy.world vs lemmy.ml? Is .ml more active?

Part of why I ask this is because I downloaded the lemmur client on my phone and it defaults to lemmy.ml. (Yes I’m aware that app is no longer being maintained)

Again apologies for the stupid question.

    The core part of it that they all have their content in a common protocol. How they display it and handle it differ based on the application, but the info itself is the same. The example often used is email - you can use any email client or service, and the email base message will be the same. It just may look a bit different, and some extra features might be lost if your client doesn’t support them.
