There has been a steady trickle of new users here today, and in the past little while, mostly due to the bad decisions that reddit is currently making.

Anyways, welcome! Feel free to look around, and if you have any questions about anything lemmy related, feel free to ask!

Also, if you feel up to it, introduce yourself in the comments below!

edit: Here's a nice getting started guide for lemmy: https://tech.michaelaltfield.net/2023/06/11/lemmy-migration-find-subreddits-communities/

Hi! Thank you and hi everybody :) I just opened account here and seems really good and better than I though it was due bad feedback of some people. Maybe Reddit has signed their gradually death sentence with the APIpocalypse. Using currently Jerboa and tried Lemmur before. Both are good but the design and intuitive UI I rather Jerboa. But I don't receive notifications I think :(

Somebody know why? Some bugs writing comments also, maybe due the high traffic for the huge exodus from Reddit or Jerboa bug? I could connect with Kbin Social or Mastodon also since here? How? Thank you!

not sure jerboa supports notifications yet, according to this? https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/275

we currently are having some issues with federation with kbin.social, i believe because they started to use cloudflare when the reddit fiasco started, and it's not playing well for our server for some reason. (i think that's the issue anyways).

we also have some mastodon issues, where for some reason searching for posts/comments/users/communities isn't working. i'm working with another mastodon admin to try and resolve the issues.

I think maybe it doesn't have them yet. Is relatively a new project, in their beginning, version 0.0.30, but I think it could be an amazing app!!

I'd like to contribute but sadly Idk how to programming yet, I only know a bit of Python and I have to look the little exercises I made yet to can remember. But want to be a good programmer in the future, hope isn't to late to study about it and work after with the AI growing.

Is possible access to Kbin.social from Lemmy.world and comment there? Or what I would need to do? And join communities? New in federated communities, I tried on Mastodon a time ago but I didn't understand it very well.
