Hello, compatriots! I'm new here (joined a few hours ago) I'm more than glad to become a part of what is referred to as the 'new face of Reddit'. What brought about my joining was my search into the Fediverse after Threads come out with the promise of being a part in future iterations of the application. With the take over of Twitter which left many disgruntled leading to the masses at Mastodon (of which I'm one) and Threads coming up strong just at the nick of posing a stern, I can only but imagine what the future holds Decentralisation and Web 3.0 seems to be the direction we are steadily heading though its development has taken a dip over the years. I'm glad to be a part of this and would love to see what becomes of the new developments and the Fediverse!

Long live the Fediverse, Long live Lemmy!

my biggest tip is that if you're on ios get wefef. great app that makes the lemmy experience beautiful and seamless.

when you read a comment from c/all from a community you want to join you can click on the community c/link to see all the posts from that community.

then use the three dots in the app at the top right to subscribe. soooo much easier than trying to search for a community from the web ux.

and i guess the other tip is to just manage your expectations - reddit wasn't built in a day and it'll take a while for all of our niche communities to create new homes here 🥰

Thanks so much. I'm an Android user though and I'm making use of Jerboa. It is not bad of an app. It needs some polishing here and there obviously but it's manageable. Grateful for the tips in searching and keeping track of comments and posts. I'd appreciate some help with URL's for posts. How do I go about it and what's their relevance?

I've actually surprised with the engagement so far. Not as expected
