Struggling to get into Lemmy (self.lemmyworld)

submitted 2 years ago by KingCrimson to c/lemmyworld

40 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Posing this on a whim since I tend to be a lurker on Reddit, but I am really struggling to get into Lemmy. Part of it is that I'm used to lurking but now we all have to put a little more work into not lurking in order to start to get the content we want, but also I have yet to find the sort of shitposting content I guess I'm looking for. Maybe that's for the best, not really sure. I'm sure I will get used to it if I commit, but I really need some more communities that'll really capture me

Sorry for the rambly post, really just putting this out there in a communal spirit

Remember, you can join kbin communities through lemmy too! Find magazines (what they call communities) through kbin.social and join them through your lemmy instance/server.

Use lemmyverse.net to look for lemmy comms (I find that browse.feddit.de doesn't show some comms, not sure why it became the most recommended one)

And remember not to join beehaw comms through a lemmy.world acc, because they'll be empty on your end soon (they've defederated lemmy.world). Join alternate comms in other instances instead.

Edit: Very useful post for finding communities to join
