As the title indicates, how does Lemmy work?

I recently inquired in a couple other communities about necessities (whether it be hardware or software, ect) and guidance to create a server/instance and decided I may be better off understanding how this realm works and operates as my starting point, then move into the hardware side, then continue to the Sofware and setup.

Ahhhh, so it’s a decentralized BTC version of the content we want.

Yes it’s decentralized but that’s about as similar it is to BTC 😆
