Fundamentally, what is lemmy?
(lemmy.ml)
A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.
Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".
Getting started on Fediverse;
Is that really an accurate description though? Do people primarily use it to find links, or to have discussions? I think more the latter.
I am of the same persuasion... "link aggregator", I would think, should be a place to "aggregate" links. In lemmy you have 4 fields: URL, Image, Title and Body. Never seen someone say lemmy is an image aggregator, for example. Body is for discussion (as in forums) and seems to be where the meat of the matter really is.
