Consider redirecting www.lemmy.one to lemmy.one? (lemmy.one)

It looks like www.lemmy.one lands on a default nginx page. Maybe it makes sense to redirect to lemmy.one?

Welcome to Lemmy.one in c/meta@lemmy.one

Is it possible to do the opposite? Can I connect from a lemmy instance to follow a couple of people on mastodon?

Where are posts stored? in c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

Ah got it thanks. Then does the !community I’m posting to just act as a tag to stay organized and help others find the post? Or is it used in the federation of the post to other servers?

For example, from my account on beehaw.org I post to !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml. This writes to beehaw.org’s database and lets lemmy.ml know about the new post (lemmy.ml saves a copy). Do other instances who have a user subscribed to !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml reach out to lemmy.ml to get a list of posts under that community? Or do other instances reach out to beehaw.org to see if there are any posts to !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml?

I guess I’m mostly just confused on how !communities are used in the federation process.

Hi, I’m new to the fediverse and trying to wrap my head around lemmy specifically.

If i’m signed into an account on beehaw.org and post to a community on lemmy.ml, is my post/comment saves on beehaw.org or lemmy.ml’s server? I understand that it will be federated between both servers but I’m curious which database the post lives i’m. Or is it replicated across both.

And do other federated services work the same way, like mastodon?

Thanks for the help in understanding this stuff!
