Lemmy at a glance (feddit.org)
submitted 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

Hi 🙋,

you might be in search for an reddit alternative and don’t get the Lemmy thing, yet. Lemme help you out, shortly.

  1. Lemmy lets you build communities just like you are used to.
  2. You need an account to participate. I doesn’t matter on which server you register.
    1. https://feddit.org → German/English community
    2. https://feddit.uk → UK centric
    3. List of other servers
  3. Lemmy servers (instances) host communities and can be interconnected.
    1. @[email protected] can follow local or remote communities
  4. Following a community is called subscribing, you’ll find a subscribe button when browsing communities.
  5. Subscribing will keep you noted on new posts.
  6. Mobile clients can make the experience more fluffy
    1. Voyager
    2. Arctic (iOS)
    3. List of other clients

Our community is called [email protected] but there are several likeminded communities out there. Make sure to watch out for them, e.g. by browsing an instance's local communities. Also if you want to stick around we posted about What to expect (from this community) and Where to start (buying european).

Feel free to link this post, when onboarding people to this community.

Yeah I'd recommend lemm.ee as a good generic default instance.

Scrubbed the third example completely. Keeps it nice and tidy, just like the client section.
