Did Reddit get massive because of Digg users making a beeline towards them or were they already big before that?

    sometimes i can’t subscribe to another’s instance’s communities without creating a user account on that instance despite seeing them in the “all” filter in the first instance

    This should only be the case if the 2 instances aren’t federating together. it might be a specific bug, can you give more context on what you couldn’t do?

      it’s happened so many times it feels like the norm so i can’t remember; but it’s bound to happen again and now that i know it’s not meant to work this way i can come back and update when it happens again.
