So which one is actually official one? I can't describe what "official" mean here, maybe the one that actually came from reddit or the one with more subsscribers or one with more activity ?

Also Why there are multiple copies of same community in different instances? Isn't the whole point of lemmy is that it is federated?

There is also three linux4noob communities 🥲

I don't think "official" means much here, but the one on .ml has 4 times as many subscribers as the next one down, so probably go there.

The whole point of Lemmy is to be federated, yes. That means anyone can set up the same community name on a different instance and be accessible to everyone. If it has more/better content or better moderation, it will survive. Maybe some people object to being on the .ml instance in the first place.

I agree. I was gonna join .ml and then noticed for some reason .world has more recent activity despite having less users. Maybe it's just timing.

.world kinda sucks so I would recommend .ml
