Echoing a big thanks to everyone here. I've been on other platforms since the mid 2000s, and this is the first time in a very long time that I've felt that this is the start (obviously not downplaying the efforts of users of Lemmy before...things...happened elsewhere) of something special. That being said, this is not a "mission accomplished" moment - we all have to work together to keep this going. A lot of us are recently coming from a platform where the sheer mass of thousands of users online simultaneously was keeping a reasonable flow of content coming. Keep posting first and third party content, keep asking questions, keep fomenting discussion, and keep being nice and welcoming!

MODERATORS
Just FYI. There are several F1 communities across instances, so be sure not to limit yourself to only one.
Any other you can recommend, made my account on here today and as of yet I'm not very familiar with how all of this works
I believe there is a [email protected]. If you hit Communities and filter by All, then search Formula, you'll find it!
Though, you may notice there is an issue with hitting subscribe, it might just say that you're subscription is pending due to heavy traffic and I read somewhere that it is a visual bug. However, even while pending it will show up in your subscribed list and content!
One of the upcoming Lemmy updates (I guess 0.19 or so) will allow linking communities on two or more instances. I'm not really interested in a pending status most other communities don't have.
Does that mean that if am on the .world instance i can join the other formula1 communities on the other instances like .ee etc. ?
Precisely.
Nice!
Besides the one mentioned in other comment, there's @formula1 as well.
PS: Not sure if the linking works properly or not.
Edit: Looks like it does.
I hope it grows. From what I can see /r/formula1 isn't planning on moving anywhere
As they should. I am fed up with what reddit is doing!
Just read the news about Mulsanne and Jeppe. Saw what Reddit was doing to other communities, and braced myself for when it came home. So, off to a new platform until this one gets ruined, then wash, rinse, and repeat.
I am a mod on RBR sub, we got inserted "old mods" in our group chats and a reddit bot that we cant remove from the group chat. Just saying.
I'm not sure a lot of the casual users staying over on Reddit will be much of a loss. That sub was becoming pretty awful since 2021. Hopefully the slightly more difficult process of figuring out a new site will keep a lot away. Reddit won't die. It'll wither though
Hey, also emigrated from r/formula1 Looking forward to getting to grips with this place
If Iβm in Kbin, can I add new posts to other communities in Lemmy?
Yes.
