Lemmy

I'll try not to lurk, even though I'm use to lurking.

I find it really hard not to lurk. So much so that the one time I got banned from a subreddit, I immediately unsubscribed from it because I knew someday I'd see something I wanted to respond to there and not being able to would be super annoying.

I really like kbin.social, but it's hard for me to figure out how to start a new Threaded post. I can add a new "article" or "link", but what about just a text post?

Also I am not sure how my home feed is populated - I can subscribe to federated stuff and local stuff, but most of what I'm seeing is not from anything I've subscribed to. Is it more like r/popular?

Furthermore friends, please sort by new where possible to help give new posts visibility when you interact with them.

Hi people!

I used to lurk a lot of subreddits but I guess that will be no longer. RIP Reddit. Long live Lemmy!

Less memes please

Well, I feel like you're talking directly to me so...here I am!

I wish signing up was easier for non technical users.

I understand the need for approving new sign ups but this can be off putting for new users.

Talking!!!!

I will do my part!

I'd like to post things, but are the communities, instances or whatever superagressive if you "Post the wrong thing to the wrong place TM", even by accident or misunderstanding? I stopped contributing to Reddit because of it.

And can the post-box be at the top of the page, before comments instead of at the bottom?

Set up my instance to come here to report that I am not lurking o7
