I like it. Bringing over some No Man's Sky people. Is there a shorthand way to link communities? Like typing /r/NoMansSky would link to the subreddit on reddit, but /c/NoMansSky doesn't link to the community here. Would be a cool future feature if it's not one now!

I think I have this figured out now lol. Hope people aren't too lazy to use this.

I think im trying trying to wrap my head around it. But it looks promising! Is there a name for individuals on lemmy? Like is there a 'Redditor' for Lemmy?

Excited to be here :)

It seems alright. Just created this account.

[โ€“] sirfig 4 points 2 years ago

Looks good so far, looking forward to getting the hang of Lemmy.

Hi! New here, likely escaping from that other place.

I'm curious -- How are y'all feeling about server load? What seem to be the limiting factors on capacity of a single instance?

[โ€“] fackyuo 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

if i create my own instance does that mean i am lord in terms of deciding what content is appropriate or not?

Just been approved for my account. It's a little different but looking forward to getting used to it. Also FU Spez.

Sup doods! Hoping we can make a nice less spezzy space here

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

It's nice. I think I am getting the hang of it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

So far so good

A bit confused but I think I'm getting the hang of it

I think I've encountered a few errors and issues but I think I can figure it out

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

I'm still mainly using Reddit atm as there is just so much more content to see and a few small Subreddits that I haven't found here. I also have not seen any porn here yet.

The blackout will hopefully bring more people (like me) here, as for those 2 days, I'll DNS block Reddit in my network to not accidentally use it during that time. Hoping to get more used to this here during that time.

Just getting the hang of it. Jerboa app for android is very nice to have - sometimes find it hard to search up a community in another lemmy server even when I know the same (I think the search is case sensitive?). That's on the mobile web interface... Haven't figured out how to find a new community on jerboa itself yet

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I'm liking it but if there's a search function I'm not finding it? Like, I want to go looking for communities by topic.

Conceptually I think this is really cool. General question - I know you can interact with different instances, and presumably there are communities that are highly active that are not on my home instance. How can I search for those communities?

I found the process a bit confusing at first, but I've really come to enjoy it.

There are a few enhancements that could really make it shine, one that I saw and really would like is a community tagging system. You could view all communities tagged as e.g "technology" in one view, helping stop communities being so splintered.

I am wondering about hosting my own instance to help spread the load, but community moderation doesn't interest me very much.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Thanks for starting this!

Still learning my way around, but I want to give a special shout to Jerboa, it's not Relay or RIF (yet,) but it's already miles better than what they did to AlienBlue.

[โ€“] p5f20w18k 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Lurked for a day anonymously, just signed up after liking what I saw. Considering hosting my own instance for myself just to try the set up, but my home server already has a lot running on it, need to think about it.

Hoping some communities I followed on reddit start to appear and have regular activity.
