It would tie in better with the email analogy, and it could show that they all just provide access to the same network.

    Servers are a better word for it imo. It is what it actually is and average people already understand servers from discord

      Discord servers are just groups. Lemmy “instances” are actual separate instances of Lemmy communicating.

      Agreed. When I explain Lemmy to my friends I describe instances as “servers.”
