Im joining in on the reddit ditching thing, and was kinda worried at first that i wouldnt be able to like use it the way i did reddit as it feels like a whole new place, but after engaging with posts and people and actually being a part of lemmy rather than being lurk mode all the time i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it is to become a member of the community, theres a reasonable amount of subs (or whatever the other word for em is) that fit my interests, enough linux content and shitposting for my liking, and the overall random posts made by people equally fed up with Leddit. (also i admit i used reddit a little cus there was this post on the fedora sub showing how to fix a sound issue i been having after a recent update)

well, everyone has to get comfortable first and had questions. also now with many more people, much more bugs show up.

there are some communities to report those issues to (like [email protected] ) or you can probably use github to report an issue.

but maybe we should build up a New Lemmings community for those kind of questions, with a guide and FAQ. also those questions wouldn't spill over as much in other communities.
You're probably right, that this has a big potential to be annoying. but I also understand people with questions.

as currently Reddit is taking a dive and many people are newly discovering Lemmy, it's currently also a topic of major interest.
I think it's good for the project, when new ideas come up and people start to contribute more - be it content, code, documentation or moderation
