Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️

An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭

Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

medyo mahirap gumawa ng lemmy account, buong araw na pala ayos kung bakit ayaw

Mej bad timing lang kasi dagsa rin ang tao na gumagawa ng account sa iba't-ibang Lemmy instances. Tapos kung dito naman, inaayos din ng (instance) admins yung server, para makayanan yung dagsa ng tao.

That said, I also had some trouble creating my account a few days ago, lol!

ano ba yung lemmy instance, parang ba magsesetup ng community server para sa lemmy, medyo noob ako dito eh

Sorry medyong baluktot pa Tagalog ko. My friend explained it like this for less techy users:

Lemmy the platform is planet Earth
"instances" like lemmy.ml, lemmy.world, beehaw.org, etc. are like the different countries on Earth
When someone signs up, the user picks one instance to be a part of, like how an Earthling becomes a citizen of a country
If you register at lemmy.ml, that means your *home instance */ "home country" is lemmy.ml, but you can "travel" to lemmy.world, another instance / "country", to check out and subscribe to their community
When you subscribe to a different instance that's not your home instance, you can still participate in their content, and other people will be able to see which instance / "country" you're from
Each instance can have its own version of the same "subreddit", so you can have a c/Philippines in your home instance that is different from a c/Philippines in another instance. But you can subscribe to both separately (sidenote: c/ is the naming convention used here I think)

Someone please correct any of this if any of it is wrong, I'll happily edit

Yeah, parang ganyan din yung pagkaka-explain sa akin nun.

Additional note lang, kung mag-rerefer tayo sa communities sa ibang instance, ang notation is kinda like this: /c/[email protected] Parang e-mail account daw, lol!
