Probably not the game you’re thinking; but my first thought was it looked like a place from Hollow Knight

From the outside looking in, the whole model seemed needlessly complicated. So it’s like there’s a LOT of reddit.coms over here? But they’re all the same? But also different? What’s the difference? Which one do I sign up on?

But then I get here and realized it doesn’t really matter that much, since you can more or less use all of them regardless of which one you sign up for.

Something about the way users try to communicate what Lemmy/Fediverse IS, is the complicated part. It’s like everyone wants to jump straight to the more technical details behind how the model works; which probably scares off a lot of the people who just want a place to pop in and talk about their hobbies.
