User accounts are fragmented and just because you signed on at lemmy.world doesn’t mean your account exists on lemmy.ca.

Communities are fragmented and /c/games on lemmy.world is completely different than the one on lemmy.ml with its own users, set of posts, etc.
Lemmy does not currently allow for instance or user migration.

Nor does it allow for shared communities (ie the aforementioned /c/games is unified across multiple instances)

We are in the early days. If you’re eager feel free to join in the development on these any many other core issues. There’s real potential here.
IMO thats the beauty of a federated network
Agree but at the same time it could be better.
It will improve over time. Hell, even reddit got better over the years, before it started getting worse for other reasons.
Here’s hoping. The devs are going to be extremely active thata for sure.
