Hey, Ubuntu Touch is a work in progress Linux OS for phones.

Lemmy is like if email and Reddit had a love child. With email you can have different providers (Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc) that all talk to each other (Gmail accounts can send emails to Yahoo accounts, etc). Lemmy is like that. There are different instances (lemmy.world, sh.itjust.works, lemmy.ca, etc.), and they are hosted on different servers, by different people, but they can all talk to one another Reddit style (they upvote each others posts, respond to each others comments, etc).
The benefit of this is that it’s decentralized. If you are having an issue with your Lemmy instance, you can just go to a new one and take all your account settings with you (compare that to Reddit, which is very centralized. If you have a problem with how its run, then you either have to suck it up or leave the platform entirely)
Oh now I get it. Thanks
No problem. Hope you like it here
Yeah. I’ve been on here reading since morning
I'll teach you but first, tell me your mother's maiden name, name of the street you grew up on, and last 4 digits of your credit card.

What device are you on? If mobile, Jerboa is a good app. Small learning curve, but easy enough, well worthwhile.
Yes I’m on mobile(iPhone) and I’ll check how jerboa works… Thanks
